Thumbs up Suitable feed/connection

I've fitted a lubetronic oiler with the controller to my 2009 Tiger.
With a Scott Oiler dual feed located under the Swing arm.
I was able to fit the unit directly to the frame under the nearside seat cowl.
I've extended the filler pipe which is now accessable from the rear
Does anyone know of a suitable conveinient feed under the seat?
This needs to be ignition fed so only on when the ignition is on,
saving oil and battery, the unit itself has an inline fuse and minimal
current draw. I don't want to use a switch as I think I would forget to turn it on /off and that defeats the object of fitting the oiler to save wear and extend the chain life.

Any Ideas or previous experience with this type of setup please!

No experience with the 2009 models, but I would think that the easiest thing to do would be to find an easy way to tie into the tail light. There should be a termination somewhere near the light that you can connect to without having to chop up your wiring harness. Just make sure you get the tail light, and not the brake light or it'll only work when you stop
