    Dear members of My China Moto,

    Since we have not achieved our required number of survey responses, we have decided to extend the deadline.
    We will contact Scottoiler to set a final deadline and give you a bit more of time to fill the questionnaire.

    Thanks to everyone who took part and completed the survey.
    We encourage everybody to get involved and not miss the chance to win a Scottoiler kit and collaborate with us in this interesting project.

    Thanks again,

    Alberto

    Same is true for Sichuan, generally considered SW China.

    Thanks for posting up the survey guys. you have a difficult job trying to research a foreign product and pry money from the hands of some of the world's most notorious cheap bastids!

    Xinjiang is in NW China.I'd say Gansu, Qinghai are too.

    I think your question on" how much do you spend on chain purchases" is umm.

    When I purchase a new chain i will also purchase/replace both sprockets.Replacing a worn out chain and not replacing the sprockets at the same time is false economy.

    I look at the total price of chain and sprockets.

    No, thanks to you so for letting us post up the survey here, Carl! It is true that is a challenging task! Almost an herculean job :)
    Hope this will help the guys from Scottoiler and spread the leisure motorcycling culture in China as well!
    The investment of brands such as Ducati, HD or Victory in China is good news for all the motorcycle related brands, including small ones such as Scottoiler!

    We have to revise our Chinese geography knowledge! Thanks for pointing that out. Already editing!

    All the best,

    Alberto

    Thanks a lot bigdamo! I'm just checking Xinjiang, Gansu and Qinghai locations and it's true they three are located in the NW of China.
    We are very sorry about that. We should definitely have double-checked everything with our Chinese groupmates.

    Good point about the price of chain and sprockets. It is also true that the normal thing is to buy chain and sprocket kits and replace them together.
    We should have been more accurate when drawing up that question.

    Thanks a lot guys for pointing out all our mistakes.
    By doing this, the respondents who are taking the survey now will find less difficulties and our results will be more precise as well.

    Best,

    Alberto

    Alberto,

    Do you know that most mechanics in China have a pot of used (black carbonized and filthy) engine oil that they brush onto their customers chain as a free service?!!

    Hi everyone,

    My apologies for not having posted yet a final deadline. I understand your complaints perfectly. We are still waiting for a response from Scottoiler. It seems that our contact has been on holidays recently so I will write them again today and announce the deadline as soon as possible, hopefully tomorrow at latest.

    I promise to give you an answer as soon as I can contact the company.

    Sorry again on behalf of my group mates and Scottoiler.

    Alberto
