Brian,  I have exactly the same scottoiler you purchased and fitted mine
already.

The vacuum connection can be found on the inlet side of the engine block.
(visible on the same side of the bike as the petrol cock)  This is to say,
from the carbs, there is a black plastic coupling that connects to the
engine block.  Just below the coupling, you can see a 4mm Allen head screw,
take this screw out, and connect the brass nipple supplied by scottoiler.

Basically you are using the vacuum connection that is meant for balancing
the carbs, so there will be a screw on each block of our V-twins.  (you can
always ask the mechanic to show you where is this vacuum screw.)

Whatever you do, the only drilling required is for mounting the scottoiler's
HCR to the rear.  No drilling of the engine or carbs is required.  Have fun
and it should not take more than 2hrs to complete the entire job.

Hi Atics,
I have just bought a Scottoiler for my '99 @, the one which fits behind the
rear numberplate.
Has anyone had experience of fitting one of these and, if so, what tips do
you have?
Where, for example, do you make the vacuum connection? I don't want to start
drilling holes all over the place if there is a suitable tapped hole with
blanking plug on the carb or manifold.
