Be prepared to take some hits from the "experts". Never fails.

The ATF was used just to clean it out. I only ran it 30 miles. Im dumping it and replacing it with Belray primary lube.

If the bike is equipped with an SE type compensator (2011 + Touring / 2013 + all big twins) then one should never run ATF, as the comp fretting wear using HD Formula or other quality chain case lube (BelRay, Spectro) is already severe. If bike doesn't have the SE comp then run whatever you want.
