Get in there!  Scottoiler will tell you more. The hassly bit is the vacuum connection. For the rest please refer to your Scottoiler instruction manual, it tells all.

1. Remove the left, the middle, and the right tank "fake" cover
2. Remove the battery.
3. Remove the air filter housing.
4. Now drill a 5 mm hole into the rubber inlet manifold. Hold bike upside down while drilling to keep bits out of engine. Or put a clean lint-free cloth in there.
5. Mount the universal spigot assembly, Scottoiler part #8, should be in the box there... The same viewed from the other side.
6. Mount the elbow connector
7. Put it all back together.

Scottoiler Installation Tips 650GS:
DON#301

We have seen messages asking about Scottoiler installation on 650GS's and offer our experience. Draw your vacuum from the line that runs to the EGR valve. The hose is larger in diameter than the T fitting so cut a short (1/2") section of smaller dia. hose to slip inside. We glue the short pieces in. Install the T and finish your install. Hope this is of help. Don.
