I can get Amsoil delivered to my door in a couple days. I just drop an email and it's on it's way. I am a preferred customer and it didn't cost any extra, I think I would have to pay after the first 6 months though. It's worth the savings because I ordered it once from their website, costs more if you do that!

No bro I can only speak for myself and how it works in my cycles/cars. To be honest I wish it was not the best because it is so expensive(i own 5 cars,4 motorcycles, boats, etc) and very hard to get a hold of.. My buddy runs Rotella and thinks I am crazy for running Amsoil but he also buys cheap tires too.. But the best part is it is all about riding and we rode 7400 miles on our sleds in about 3 months..

It's sold at most Power Sports dealers, Honda, Yamaha and so forth. I know my 95 FLSTN really like Amsoil in all three holes.

$50-60,000 Corvettes come filled with Mobil One! Good enough for me! Get it from tons of places without ordering, jumping through "preferred customer" hoops, PAYING to get a lower price, etc. You all do what you want, but I repeat.........pyramid sales makes me not buy Amsoil...........it may be really great oil, in fact, I'll even say it IS great oil.........but the marketing of it TURNS ME OFF, big time.

Mobil 1 (Stock Holders) = make money on sales
Mobil 1 (Distributors) = make money on sales
Mobil 1 (Retailers) = makes money on sales

Yup...that's a good example of not being "pyramid sales"...Good Grief

Amsoil pays it's dealers for sales...period..no middlemen
