Re: Amsoil price - huh? Was: Yamalube$ - Page 4

 



I've heard that Amway crap for decades.  Amway is notorious for telling
outright lies, and they've been sued for it at least several times.  They've
always lost, but keep on lying anyway.  There's new suckers born every
minute, and profits are so great that lawsuits mean little in the long run.
If this were a more fair world, Amway would be shut down.

 



I'll also point out that it's a near certainty that all Amway products are
rebadged by manufacturing companies providing a number of labels on their
product.  Job manufacturing is common in this modern world.  I once
progarmmed and installed a billing system where as many as 80 different
labels could be placed on the same damned product.

    It's that good for motorcycles heh????hmmmm do they also recomend using
their oil filters per 5,000k/3,000m change every time????

    Do you think the Price of M/Cycle oil plays a significant factor in your
expensive PTW/Bike's engine life........then there's all the work
involved...gathering tools, a pan,...also depends if your changing oil off a
street curb or in your own big, peaceful backyard.

    It "$" might matter in a heavily used big bore old car, where a gallon
of it maters...............Then there's the excess oil we buy that sits around
for a year or 2 and gets "contaminated" by the time we go to use it.
 
    Ok....do you think Amsoil (without filter change) is better than
Yamalube?......Amsoil is synthetic and Yamalube is probably olive oil.
