They are the best things EVER!
A reservoir sits under you seat (or faring or ducktail, whatever), connected to a flutter valve that is linked to a vacume plug on the engine and rubber tubing that runs from the reservoir down to a tiny outlet that sits on your chain. When the engine is on the flutter valve opens and releases one drop of oil per minute (it is adjustable). It doesn't go anywhere near your tyre or splatter about and it increases the life of your chain and sprockets by at least 1/3. This means it can pay for itself very quickly.
The only company I've ever heard of making them is Scottoiler in the UK, but I heard there was an Aussie mob ripping the idea off (in true Aussie style). Hoping someone had heard of them, but sounds not.
Chain oilers are the best invention (after the seat).
