Anyone know where to get amsoil for a reasonable price is Canada, 15 bucks a liter is not a fair price to me. Thanks
 
Just use Mobil 1, they are VERY close in tests. I was an Amsoil dealer, then they started screwing with the pricing and adding surcharges and the shipping was a rip. Waved bye-bye over a year ago.
 
+1 on what Aussie said....find a synthetic bike oil that you have easy access to and stick with it....

I use amsoil but they have a warehouse in my town, so I got lucky there. I signed up as a preferred customer for dealer pricing.

If all else fails and you really want Amsoil, I might be able to ship you a case, but not sure what is involved in shipping a fluid, or if the shipping to Canada would make it not worth it.
 
15 bucks? You are worried over a few dollars a quart or litre? :poke:

It is cheap insurance, there is no substitute to Amsoil. If I had to use another oil it would probably be Mobil 1 though, I have used it before and it didn't really impress me.
 
The price of getting things shipped into Canada is what raises the price so high. Use to work for a large freight company and people would be shocked to see how much it was to ship cargo into canada.
 
I just called the stealership and they raised their prices of Amsoil from $9.50 a quart last year to $12 a quart this year. Is it worth the hassle? Or should I just get some Mobil 1?
 
The shipping fees can sometimes kill the purchase. The shipping rates just sky rocketed when gas went threw the roof. When gas jumped so high awhile ago I was working for a freight company and we would have customers argue with us over the freight charges.

True story, USPS would be the only way I could think of to do it even close to semi cheap.
 
So why isn't there anyone that sell it in canada at a half decent price, maybe someone should bring a trailer load in.
 
Personally I would pay the extra 3 dollars a quart for Amsoil. Could I honestly say it was THAT much better than Mobil 1? Hmmm tough question, Mobil has an excellent reputation and what my wife's new Mercedes calls for, so you can't really argue that.

However, I would love to know if Royal Purple is as good or better than Amsoil? I don't pay a lot of attention to that oil study that is out, that was done by Amsoil so of course they are going to come out great.

I use Amsoil and think it is wonderful, however if there is better, I wouldn't care if it was 20 bucks a quart. Any opinions?

Amsoil is a good oil, so is Mobile 1. Both are grade 4 synthetics but if you really want the best go for a grade 5 like Red Line or Motul 5100, they are a little bettor...Stay away from Castrol syntec and and most other lower cost synthetics because they are not synthetic at all. They are highly purified dino oil and the US goverment in 1999 ruled they could market there oil as synthetic even though it's not after Moble 1 sued Castrol for there false clames. Only in the US can a grade 3 oil be marketed as a synthetic. In Europe and Japan it must be 100% synthetic base stock(grade 4) befor it can be called a "SYNTHETIC"

If you want a good read and some clarification on this google "all about motor oil" and read.
 
I can supply any amsoil product to anyone in the world via usps just lmk what you need
