HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Doesn't look so happy for H-D guy though. Looks like he is about to I would blow chunks too if I had to do shots of Busch Light. NASTY

Wouldn't you know it, got my archery stuff out today to start practicing my Buckzilla killin skilz and my darn string is toast. Can't believe I need to replace the string again. DO NOT purchase a Jennings Gale Force if you want a maintenance free compound. Geesh, I've replaced the string twice already since I bought the bow a few years back in like 1989. Anyone have any suggestions on good archery shops? I need to get the thing fixed so I can start practicing. Opening day is just over a month away. Woo Hoo! My first Buck. 11-06-08

Definitely Lucky Strikes! Reminds me of the Old School 500 two smokes. Schwantz, Doohan, Rainey, etc. Damn, I'm getting old.

Welcome to C-bus!

Welcome to Ohio Riders. That project looks pretty cool. Hope to see it out at a bike night some time. Hopefully you won't have much trouble making it street legal. Keep us posted on the progress.

Welcome to Ohio Riders

Don't fret guys, with Obama in office we won't need to worry about any of that soon. We'll just sit around watching Days of Our Lives and Springer while Uncle Sam takes care of everything for us.

Those are definitely some sweet sights. Where can I get some locally?

The retailers selling at those prices are probably paying freight charges to have Amsoil delivered to their store. Therefore, they need to charge more than Amsoil retailers that have an Amsoil dealer that delivers to the store free of charge. Most of the top quality, true synthetics oils out there have base stocks blended from pure chemicals. They are also designed with special additive packages tailored for motorcycle applications. Making an oil this way is more expensive than refining an oil to remove a certain amount of impurities and then adding the proper additives. I think that even the Amsoil critics out there would agree that a full synthetic oil is a better lubricant than a conventional petroleum oil. I'm sure there are many $5 a quart oils out there that will do the job for people. It all boils down to what you want out of an oil and whether you are willing to pay a bit more for a better oil.

Welcome to OR!

It depends what type of dealer you are referring to. Are you interested in selling Amsoil products through a retail store or are you interested in starting your own business and setting up other dealers, retailers and commercial accounts. Please give me a call and we can discuss it.

Please keep one thing in mind, I am an Amsoil dealer. Therefore I am talking about Amsoil. I am not talking about other oils and the large distributors because you cannot buy Amsoil through TR or PU. I say "most" dealers in regards to getting Amsoil to their shop. There are many great Amsoil dealers out there that do deliver and others that will set retailers up with an Amsoil account and not provide any service including delivery. Therefore, the retailer would have to pay shipping. If you are a salesman then you should understand the idea of business sponsorships on Ohio Riders. Most sponsors join in order to raise awareness about a product or service through networking. One part of this networking would be responding to posts in that sponsors own threads. If it offends you that a sponsor would reply to posts in their threads then you should probably avoid all threads from sponsors because there is a good possibility that they may be trying to promote a product or service. It offends me when YOU get on a thread about AMSOIL and YOU assume that I am talking about other oils and distributors and then YOU call ME a liar in other words. I am not on here slandering other oils or making false claims about Amsoil. If you have any constructive dialogue that pertains to this thread please share. If not, please stop slandering me and avoid my threads. I will continue to respond to posts in Modern Synthetics threads about a great oil, Amsoil. Please think about what thread you are on before you make false assumptions and start telling people that I am "saying things that just are not true."

$15 a quart? Holy Cow! I'm not sure where you saw Amsoil 10W/40 motorcycle oil for $15 a quart but I do know of several retailers around Columbus that sell the Amsoil 10W/40 motorcycle oil in the $10.35 - $12.00 a quart range. Check them out "AMSOIL RETAILERS COLUMBUS". Individual shops set the prices and many charge a bit more than suggested retail in order to make it worthwhile to stock Amsoil. The profit margin on Amsoil is not nearly as high as most oil on the shelf. Retailers carry Amsoil products because customers request it and they want to provide customers with the products they desire, not because of large profits. These retailers are providing a service by making Amsoil readily available through the long retail hours that their stores are open. During that time they are incurring costs. Please keep that in mind when shopping for Amsoil products.

If any of you patronize a dealer that does not carry Amsoil and you would like to see it on their shelves, please have them contact Modern Synthetics. I would be happy to set them up with an account. They do not have to pay a dime to get set up and there are no buy-ins or quantity requirements involved. Let them know that free delivery is part of the service I provide if I can work them into one of my bi-weekly or monthly routes. This is huge to most dealers because oil is expensive to ship and after freight charges there is no profit to be made on the oil. Spread the word - MODERN SYNTHETICS!!!!

If you get to Columbus area try one of these AMSOIL RETAILERS. They usually stock plenty of the motorcycle oils.

OSUYZFR1, Your welcome. Thank you for purchasing through Modern Synthetics. Once I see your account information come through I will reimburse you for the trial membership or for half the cost of the 1 year membership if that is what you chose. If you have any questions regarding Amsoil products or programs please feel free to give me a call.

I need some OR stickers too. If anyone has a some extras laying around please drop a couple off at my booth. PS. White would sure look good on my red truck.

I'll be there with some FREE, icy cold bottled waters so if you want a break from beer or soda stop by the Amsoil booth.

I'm sure the study was comparing retail pricing but I have no idea where they got the prices from. If you really want to know you could probably call Amsoil to find out. I don't handle shipping charges so I can't tell you how much it would be to your door. If you really want to know how much it would cost you to get 6 quarts of Amsoil shipped to YOUR door you could go to www.modernsynthetics.com and put the six quarts in the shopping cart and follow through the checkout process until it shows you the cost with shipping and taxes. Then close it out if you don't want to make the purchase.
