Adventure Bikes Offer Growth in a Changing Motorcycle Market

Harley-Davidson* has dominated motorcycle culture for decades. Due to the brand’s popularity, many people associate motorcycling with taking to the highway on a big, powerful V-twin. While many loyal Harley riders still populate our highways, new data reveals their numbers are declining. In fact, the entire motorcycle market is suffering declining sales. One bright spot, however, is the adventure bike category.

See the November AMSOIL Magazine for what you need to know about the changing market and how to reach these new prospects.

UTV Torture Test: See How AMSOIL Performs

Whether at work or play, enthusiasts push their UTVs and ATVs to the ragged edge. They need lubricants that deliver excellent wear protection despite intense heat and stress. To test the performance of AMSOIL ATV/UTV Synthetic Motor Oil, we installed it in a 2018 Polaris* Ranger* and subjected it to an extreme test in our mechanical lab. As the results show, AMSOIL delivered exceptional protection.
