Default mixing primary oil?

I did a complete oil change on my new Heritage. When I refilled the primary oil with H-D oil I only had 800 ml of oil left. Can I use Lucas Primary Chaincase Oil for the other 150 ml or can this cause a problem? The Harley shop is a 2 hour drive from my place.

Yes, it'll be fine.
But there'll be 400 people along soon to say not to do it, and only use Harley oil.

Thanks guys, I will go ahead. I have been wrenching on bikes for 40 years and could'nt see why not, but better safe than sorry.
