Lube sale

[klyong82]

Let's do a group buy and score some discounts.

I'll start us off, let say 1 barrel of the 10w-40?

Alright 205L barrel i think its gonna cost $850.

Thanks Kim -

I'm needing some for big Yellow, but at that price, I might stash some extra...

Sweet just give Barry a ring.

this website says they are in Wellington. Are the prices you have been given for delivery to Auckland and at quantities are they delivered free or is it available for pickup from Auckland somewhere. Any idea of the price of their coolant also? I'd be keen on a few 4L oil packs, some chain lube and coolant too at those prices.

Bluepak have a distributor in Auckland only out in Takanini or Papakura which you can pick up if you want to. Barry delivered it to me and hungusmaximist for free as Barry makes alot of deliveries to Auckland CBD. Just give him a ring...

That's my understanding too. Something to do with their seals not liking synthetic oil.

ahhh that was it!

yeah run mineral in mineral or you may find freshly developed oil leaks (among other issues) as the seals change size.

besides - all those journal bearings have had a LOT of work designing them to work well given a particular range of oil properties. let's not ignore some poor japanese engineer's hard work.

all my manual says is it likes 10w40....I'm just assuming semi synthetics weren't generally around back in '83 Lol

Apparently synthetics oil has been in existance since the 50's....but probably not for commercially. I think oil was cheap back then

That barrel is actually a pretty good deal.

Kim, if you don't mind checking if there will be any discount for a big group buy.

Say give you cash and he'll bring it around to yours.

Btw, did he mention when the $24.00 deal gonna end?

Figure I'll need lube one day, might as well get some while its cheap, going for a group buy? If so I'll put my order in with yours, if not let me know and i'll go order it seperately

How many you after? Will need at least 20 bottles and probably you save a $1 off for each bottle. Otherwise just call and he will drop it off to you.....you bought it off him before. He said sale might end next week...

Probably explains why it developed oil leaks when i switched from the semi 10w15 timmay had been putting in it to the 20w50 honda reccommended!

back to the point, do we just call up an order?might get some chain lube since I shouldn't go with the oil...

Yeah call Barry and tell him what you want. Tell him the bike you are riding and he will run thru his manuals.....and ask if he can do free delivery for you too. sweet
