Harley oils is good, no problem with Harley dino motorcycle oil so just forget that. There are however lots of good synthetic oils that may or may not change a damn thing in your performance or viscosity, here comes the brigade of opinions !!!!

Buy whichever you like. I like Amsoil. Others like Harley products. Mobil1 Bel-Ray, Royal purple, synthetic, dino ..they all work. It becomes a personal preference and how much you want to spend but all meet the minimum requirements and all will lubricate properly.
Now grab a seat and wait for the others to tell you why one is better than the other.....

I use oil and I change it every 3-5000 miles or once a year and call it good.
Seems to work out.
This aint rocket science.

Maybe I'm doing it wrong.
I guess oil is harder than I thought...

I think after you look around for a while most people on here run Syn3, Mobile1, Amsoil, and Valvoline. There is a bunch I missed but if you run a synthetic of the correct weight you will be safe. Or a dino oil of the correct weight. hahahahahah
