Victory Motorcycle Claims Mileage
First With AMSOIL Synthetic Oil
Tim Werder, "Roadkill"
to his friends, has racked up a first on the first new U.S.
manufactured full-size motorcycle in 60 years.
Werder, Shawangunk,
New York, has more than 100,000 "butt miles" on
his Polaris made 1999 Victory V92C motorcycle.
While it's the
world's highest mileage for the cruisers since the first Victory
V92C production model rolled off the assembly line on July
4, 1998, Werder is an old hand on a bike. He's been riding
since he was 16, even traveling more than 10,000 miles by
motorcycle on his honeymoon with his wife Christine.
The love of motorcycles
has always been a theme in Werder's life. He's put more than
100,000 miles on other bikes through the years and faced more
than his share of dangers along the way. Five accidents, one
that caused him life threatening injuries, have not deterred
him, nor has a 190-mile-a-day round trip commute to his state
government job in New York City.
His bike, known
as "Traveler," is powered by a 1507 cc air/oil cooled
V-twin engine and has a five speed transmission. The Victory
motorcycles are manufactured in Osceola, Wisconsin, with final
assembly in Spirit Lake, Iowa.
Werder rides "Traveler"
year round, even in the cold of the Northeast winter.
He owns another
Victory motorcycle, number 219 from the first year of production,
and a 2003 Victory Vegas with a 1507 cc Freedom engine.
Werder uses AMSOIL
20W-50 Synthetic Motorcycle Oil in the summertime and in the
winter switches to AMSOIL 10W-40 Synthetic Motorcycle Oil.
He also uses an AMSOIL Motorcycle Oil Filter.
Werder recommends
this combination to other Victory riders as well. "I'm
extremely pleased with the results I achieve from the AMSOIL
products, and I've specifically had oil analysis performed
to maintain awareness of fluid performance." he said.
He earned the nickname
"Roadkill" because "I've hit five deer, all
while motorcycling, never in a car," Werder said. In
one of those accidents, Werder nearly lost his leg. His wife
and two sons share his love of motorcycles and work with him
in his AMSOIL business.
He is former national
vice president for the Victory Riders Association. He organized
group rides for association members during the groups first
year.
Werder joined the
Marine Corps in 1986 and went to basic training on Parris
Island. There he may have logged another first - as oldest
recruit.
Drill instructors
repeatedly made him yell out his age. "Sir, I'm 26, Sir!"
Werder recalled of his time there. He became a logistics/embarkment
specialist staff sergeant with Aerial Refueling Squadron VMGR-452,
Newburgh, New York. That unit was reactivated on Feb. 8, 2003
and sent to the Middle East. They haven't seen active duty
since the Persian Gulf War.
The veteran rider
has logged nearly 500,000 miles on motorcycles.
"My 26 years
of riding has brought me to a butt total of over 479,000 miles,
including three 100,000 plus-mile motorcycles with a variety
of trailer and sidecar-towing duties, and even though I live
in the Northeast, I normally ride through the seasons, expecting
my bikes to accept what I dish out. AMSOIL gives me the confidence
to do so," Werder said. "I anticipate the 500,000-mile
mark this summer, and always recommend AMSOIL to fellow riders,
regardless of the make of bike they ride."
He caters to motorcycle
riders in his AMSOIL business, especially Victory riders,
he said, but he may expand that business when he retires from
his full-time job.
"I consider
myself a voice for many motorcyclists, and am a long-time
member of the American Motorcyclist Association, Motorcycle
Rider's Foundation and ABATE," he said.
As Roadkill says,
"Ride on."

"AMSOIL INC. warrants that the use of its lubricants will not cause mechanical damage to any mechanically sound equipment when AMSOIL INC. products are used in full compliance with the company's recommendations and instructions."
FULL
WARRANTY
AMSOIL
synthetic motor oils are formulated to surpass engine test
specifications, offering protection far greater than competing
motor oils for extended drain intervals. Most synthetic oil
manufacturers make no claim to extended drain intervals, deferring
to the maintenance schedule provided by the vehicle manufacturer.
With its unparalleled oil and warranty program, AMSOIL offers
consumers unprecedented protection and economics.
Another
AMSOIL First
More than 20 years
ago, AMSOIL began using the NOACK volatility test as a comparison
tool and measurement of quality. Back then, nearly every oil
tested side-by-side with AMSOIL synthetic motor oils failed,
and those that passed barely squeaked by. Other oil companies
paid no attention to NOACK results until Ford Motor Company
made it a requirement for service fill oils, validating what
AMSOIL had said all along.
THE
NOACK Volatility Test
The NOACK
Volatility Test determines the evaporation loss
of lubricants in high temperature service. The more
motor oils vaporize, the thicker and heavier they become,
contributing to poor circulation, reduced fuel economy
and increased oil consumption, wear and emissions. AMSOIL
Synthetic Motor Oil resists high temperature volatization
better than other motor oils. AMSOIL Synthetic Motor
Oil maintains peak fuel efficiency and reduces oil consumption
and emissions. |
