Explain how you would love to do your shopping there but they just do not carry the products you need and want. Ask them to stock the Spectro lubes you want.

Re: Trans Oil Poll
Stocking lubes other than the HD brand by the dealers is a good move on their part and shows their willingness to accommodate the customer just as Smitty's dealer did.
My dealer stocks the spectro as well as a few other brands, it's just good business to please the customer and the returns on it are in their bottom line. That's what most businesses are about.

Re: Trans Oil Poll
I had previously done just that with my dealer but I had no ammunition to plead my case. They said (at the time) that there were plenty of other lubes available from various sources and it wouldn't be cost effective for them. I now have the product in the bike and can take my 'example' with me to show them the difference. Maybe the 'bird in the hand' ruse will work and I'll be able to buy Spectro locally...
It IS a better option than what they say is in the other hand... |

Re: Trans Oil Poll
I recently switched to Bel-Ray big twin since my dealer stocks it. I can really tell a difference from the SYN3 I had before. So I have stocked up at the shop,,so far I have used it in 2 cusomters bikes and both have noticed the difference. No more Chavez stuff ...LOL

Re: Trans Oil Poll
Iwas using amsoil and just put in Spectro 6 Speed trans oil 75/140. What a difference. Shifting is 100% smoother and I no longer have the 5th gear noise. This stuff ROCKS!!!!

Re: Trans Oil Poll
So Amsoil isn't the cure all it is touted to be?
