Victory Motorcycle Claims Mileage First With AMSOIL Synthetic Oil

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."

Harley Davidson Owners Choose AMSOIL

Premium AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oils offer the longest drain intervals on the market, unsurpassed protection and performance that effectively extends equipment life and improved fuel economy, saving customers money at the pump and reducing the nation’s dependence on foreign oil.

"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.
