Advanced Protection for Motorized
Scooters
At on time, the word "scooter"
conjured up visions of underpowered, noisy, smoky, ill-handling,
bicycle-like machines. Although low in cost and offering excellent
fuel economy, they were primarily seen only on college campuses
and in trendy tourist locales. Most featured single cylinder,
air-cooled 50 to 150cc engines capable of reaching speeds
of up to 35-40 mph.
Today's scooters offer greatly
improved handling and exceptional performance, while maintaining
their afforability and excellent fuel efficiency. Their popularity
has skyrocketed in recent years, and the scooter market is
one of the fastest growing segments in the transportation
industry. In fact, scooter sales increased 20 percent last
year, with similar growth projected for 2007. Today's scooters
range in size from 50 to 600+ cc's and utilize high-tech engine
designs and advanced system controls. Some models are capable
of obtaining road speeds in excess of 100 mph. Because these
advancements place additional strain on the equipment, today's
high-tech scooters demand high quality lubricants specifically
formulated to address the special needs found in scooter applications:
Shear Stability -
High engine rpms common to scooter applications increase shear,
causing conventional lubricants to lose viscosity and reduce
their ability to control wear, resulting in shorter engine
life.
Thermal Stability -
The operating temperatures of scooter engines fluctuate greatly,
especially with air-cooled engines. Elevated temperatures
cause the oil to quickly break down and shorten its service
life. High temperatures also cause the oil to lose viscosity,
minimizing its ability to control wear.
Transmission and Gear
Box Compatibility - In many scooter applications,
the engine and transmission and/or gear box share the same
oil reservoir, exposing the oil to mechanical shearing forces
and permanent viscosity loss as it passes through the contact
areas within the gear sets.
Wet-Clutch Compatiblity
- Some scooters utilize a frictional clutch to engage
and disengage the engine from the drivetrain. In many cases,
this clutch is immersed in the same oil used in the engine
and transmission. Frictional compatibility must exist between
the oil and the clutch to prevent excessive slippage and extend
clutch life.
AMSOIL
10W-40 Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Scooter Oil (ASO) is
formulated specifically to meet the special needs of today's
high-tech air and water-cooled four-stroke motorized scooters,
offering unsurpassed wear protection and friction reduction
for longer equipment life and cooler operating temperatures.
Its exceptional shear stability ensures consistent viscosity
protection and provides additional protection for transmissions
and gear boxes, while its friction modifier-free formulation
ensures wet clutch compatibility and smooth clutch operation.
A special anti-corrosion additive package provides long-term
protection during periods of inactivity and storage.
AMSOIL
10W-40 Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Scooter Oil is recommended
for air- and water-cooled four-stroke motorized scooter engines
calling for a 10W-40 viscosity, as well as transmissions and
gear boxes calling for a 10W-40 motor oil, including Honda,
Kawasaki, Suzuki, Yamaha, Vespa, Aprilia, Piaggio, Benelli,
Vento, Kymco, Tank and TGB. It is recommended for the longest
drain interval recommended by the equipment manufacturer.
