Four-Ball Wear Testing, Harley-Davidson's Own "Genuine" Oil Produces the
Highest Wear Scar vs. Other Leading Motorcycle Oil's!
Harley-Davidson
Maintains That You Use Their "Genuine" Oil, yet Harley Davidson Doesn't Even
Make Their Own Oil.
Learn The Facts About Harley-Davidson Oil in this
Eye-Opening Article written by A.J. Amatuzio, President and CEO of AMSOIL
INC.
"A situation my daughter, Lyn, told me about recently got me to thinking
about how good it is to be able to blend our own oils and have complete
control over our own product quality.
Lyn loves to ride motorcycles. She recently purchased a Harley-Davidson bike
and took it to the local Harley shop to have our new AMSOIL Motorcycle Oil
installed. The mechanic took issue with her not using the oil
Harley-Davidson sells, saying, "I'll use AMSOIL motor oil when AMSOIL starts
making motorcycles!"
How would you answer a challenge like that? I was pleased to hear Lyn's
response. She said, " I'll start using Harley-Davidson motor oil when Harley
starts making oil!"
Perfect! The fact is that Harley-Davidson, like so
many other "brands" of oil, contract with one or more oil companies to make
their lubricants. Often, the decision as to who actually makes a private
labeled product is based on low bid, and like almost everything manufactured
by a low bidder, short cuts are taken in order to meet the low price.
I understand that Harley-Davidson has contracted with one company for a
number of years to make their oil. That's good, but it still doesn't change
the fact that they make motorcycles, not oil. Now consider all the private
label oils out there. Every manufacturer that makes equipment with an
engine has it's own name on an oil bottle. That includes all the major auto
manufacturers, the makers of motorcycles, ATV's, snowmobiles, farm
equipment, you name it, they all have oils. But none of these equipment
manufacturers actually make an oil. They sell oil to make more money,
and then they often price these oils well above the going rate for
competitive lubricants because, like Harley-Davidson,
they can specify or create the impression that only their oil be used in
their equipment.
Now there's nothing wrong in having a goal to make money, but let's get real
here. Why would anyone want to use a product manufactured down to a price
rather than up to high quality standards? We have tested a number of
these private label motor oils and two-cycle oils and we found that many are
mediocre quality products. None of them even comes close to performing as
well as AMSOIL lubricants, and that's a fact!
I'm not taking shots at Harley-Davidson. They make good motorcycles
(although I liked my Goldwing better). And I understand their concern that
normal automotive oils not meeting API C specs shouldn't be used in their
bikes. But when they imply that AMSOIL Motorcycle Oil is not as good as
their brand or I hear that one of their dealers recommended not using
AMSOIL, I get a little hostile. Those kinds of statements are the very
reason we introduced our motorcycle oils in the first place. And when we say
use our 20W-50 motorcycle oil in V-Twin motorcycle engines, that definitely
includes Harley-Davidson motorcycles.
Our Motorcycle Products Brochure, G-391, includes wear comparisons of AMSOIL
Motorcycle Oils vs. other oils, including H-D "Genuine". Both our oils
demonstrate superior wear protection over all other tested brands.
Interestingly enough, the highest wear scar in this
test turned out to be Harley-Davidson's own "Genuine" oil!
There is a good reason why AMSOIL Motorcycle Oils protect so well against
wear. They are formulated with significantly higher levels of zinc and
phosphorus, which when included in proper formulation with other high
quality additives, provide superior wear protection at the high operating
temperatures typical of motorcycles. In addition, synthetic oils inherently
reduce sump temperatures so the engines actually run cooler.
The fact is, Harley would do well to have AMSOIL make their oils for them.
Then they could be assured that their oil was indeed a superior product. As
it is, there may be absolutely nothing wrong with their oil for use in
average service, but I guarantee you as the oil temperature gets hotter,
like it does when sitting in traffic on asphalt on a hot summer day, the
Harley-Davidson with AMSOIL in the crankcase is going to be far better
protected and run far cooler than the bike with H-D "Genuine" oil in it.
There's just no two ways about it!
So, my daughter Lyn will be going back to this mechanic armed with the facts
about AMSOIL Motorcycle Oils and a few facts about H-D oil. Nobody's going
to tell her that her dad's oils are not the very best. She knows better, and
she's on a mission to prove her point. Who knows? Knowing Lyn, she might
sign up another AMSOIL Dealer in the process."
AMSOIL Synthetic 10W-40 and 20W-50 motorcycle oils
give motorcyclists what they need: Superior wear protection for high- stress
motorcycle engines and transmissions that stay clean and deposit-free.
One of the most common questions we are asked is what is the recommended
transmission lube for Harley-Davidson, both big twins and sportsters?
The answer is for 883cc and 1200cc sportster motorcycles, the AMSOIL
Synthetic 20W-50 Motorcycle Oil is recommended for both the engine and
transmission. On 1340cc and 1450cc models, the 20W-50 Motorcycle Oil is
recommended for the engine crankcase, Series 2000 75W-90 Gear Lube for the
transmission and the 10W-40 Motorcycle Oil for the chaincase.
AMSOIL submitted
five popular motorcycle oils to spectrographic analysis and Four-Ball Wear
(ASTM D4172) testing and compared the results to those of AMSOIL Synthetic
20W-50 and Synthetic 10W-40 Motorcycle Oils.
None of the popular motorcycle oils compared favorably to the AMSOIL
products in wear additive content or wear protection (see Spectrographic
Analysis chart and Wear Protection graph).
Test Results: HD Syn3 vs AMSOIL V-Twin
Motorcycle Oil
As seen in the chart
below, AMSOIL Synthetic Motorcycle Oils contain significantly higher levels
of zinc and phosphorus than the competing oils, and while simply adding more
zinc and phosphorus doesn’t insure good performance, AMSOIL has formulated
motorcycle oils with the best additives in the optimal quantities to provide
superior wear protection.
What about oil
temperature and wear? A Four-Ball Wear Test was conducted at 302°F/150°C, a
higher temperature that would typically be associated with motorcycle oil
operating temperatures in extreme high performance situations. AMSOIL
products protect better in higher temperatures than any of the tested
motorcycle oils do, leaving a wear scar up to 37 percent smaller.
Some motorcycle
transmissions and engines share a common oil sump, so the engine oil must
also provide wear protection to the transmission gears, which, according to
Motorcycle Consumer News (Aug. 1998) are subject to high gear surface
pressures and gear rotation speeds. The superior performance of the AMSOIL
Motorcycle Oils in the Four-Ball Wear Test applies here too.
Motorcyclists will find no better oils
than AMSOIL Synthetic Motorcycle Oils.
Here's what a few of our satisfied customers have to say about AMSOIL:
Dear Dave.....How's it going? Fine I hope. I just wanted to bring you up to
date. I received my AMSOIL 20W-50 Motorcycle oil today via UPS. I wasted no
time, and changed my H-D 20W-50 oil to your 100% synthetic. I can already
tell a definite change in how my transmission shift's smoother! My engine
sound's quieter, and I notice the throttle response is better, and more
responsive. Although my H-D 2002 V-Rod only has 1976 mile's, and is still
very new, I feel more confident for the future life of my fine machine
knowing it now has adequate protection in the engine, transmission, and
final drive. The wet clutch seem's to be easier to operate as well. I showed
my Harley pal's your wear test's specification's, and how poor a quality H-D
20W-50 really is, and some of them are now interested in switching their
motorcycles to AMSOIL as well! One of my Harley pal's is a Master Diesel
Mechanic, and he quit using H-D oil year's ago. He knows there are many
better quality regular petroleum oil's out there than the way over-rated H-D
brand! I will happily promote your product to other enthusiast's down the
line. Thank's Again......Charles Graham
