Don’t wait until October. Superior Synthetics LLC in Wisconsin shows you how to upgrade bike servicing before fall starts. Read on and discover the AMSOIL products to use now.
Most Midwest riders associate October with motorcycle maintenance, but by that time, the wear and tear of summer rides has already set in. August is your early warning since waiting too long can expose you to engine stress, overheating, fluid degradation, and decreased fuel economy, all of which are avoidable with timely intervention.
Once the temperatures drop, your bike will face entirely different challenges: cold starts, increased fuel condensation, and oil thickening. If your fluids are already compromised from summer use, you're compounding the problem. August gives you the perfect buffer to prepare, which is why more riders are prioritizing bike servicing before fall as part of a smarter maintenance cycle.
From brake pad wear to chain lubrication and clutch fluid checks, August literally gives you time to look for issues and solve them. The lull before fall riding season is a great time to book appointments with local service shops, inspect wear-and-tear points, and upgrade your fluids to high-performance synthetic formulas from AMSOIL.
Not all oils are created equal when protecting your motorcycle during August’s heat and prepping it for the crisp autumn air. AMSOIL offers motorcycle-specific synthetic oils and lubes engineered to provide exceptional thermal stability and wear protection across all temperature ranges.
A Midwest favorite, especially among Harley-Davidson and big cruiser riders, this oil is built to handle intense heat and extended drain intervals. Its resistance to viscosity breakdown ensures consistent protection even during aggressive riding in August’s heat. It also excels at maintaining cleanliness inside the engine, reducing deposits and sludge.
This high-performance option offers reliable wet-clutch compatibility and consistent gear and engine performance for metric bikes (Honda, Yamaha, Kawasaki, and Suzuki). August humidity and stop-and-go traffic are no match for its robust anti-wear additives and superior frictional stability.
Still squeezing in some trail time before fall? This product is a must. Designed for high-RPM conditions and extreme clutch performance, AMSOIL dirt bike oils offer extra protection during heavy-load situations in the heat, ideal for August trail riders in Wisconsin’s many off-road parks.
Now is the time to reapply chain lube and prep internal components with engine fogging oil, especially if your riding season winds down by October. These products protect against corrosion, friction, and premature wear, rounding out your maintenance routine before the season shifts.
Beyond oils, AMSOIL offers several high-performance additives that help improve combustion efficiency, clean internal components, and keep fuel systems working smoothly. These are particularly useful in the lead-up to colder riding conditions.
August is the month of hot roads and heavy fuel demand. This additive increases power and improves throttle response, particularly during those final summer rides before colder weather affects performance. It’s also a great addition when switching fuel types or riding at higher altitudes.
If there’s a slight chance your bike will go into semi-storage or be reduced in use in September, this additive is a must. It protects fuel from oxidation for up to 12 months, preventing varnish and gum buildup. It's a key tool in responsible bike servicing before fall, especially for Midwest riders who face long winters.
Ethanol-blended fuels dominate Midwest gas stations, and they’re notorious for moisture absorption and injector issues. Quickshot combats these problems by cleaning carburetors, fuel injectors, and combating phase separation in ethanol-containing fuel. Regular use in August can restore performance and prep your bike for storage.
Flushing your engine before an oil change removes deposits and sludge that can thicken and damage internal components during cooler months. Doing this in August ensures you start the fall riding season with clean internals and optimal fluid flow.
