This motorcycle was originally equipped with GENUINE HARLEY-DAVIDSON H-D 360 MOTORCYCLE OIL 20W50. H-D 360 is the preferred oil under normal operating conditions. If operation under extreme cold or heat are expected, refer to Table 1 for alternative choices.
If H-D 360 is not available, add oil certified for diesel engines. Acceptable designations include: CH-4, CI-4 and CJ-4. The preferred viscosities, in descending order are: 20W50, 15W40 and 10W40.

As far as I was told by the dealer, mine came with F+ in the primary, dino in the tranny and crankcase. I have since replaced with dino in the crankcase, red line in the tranny and F+ in the primary.
If I go on a long trip where I know there will be hot weather I will change the crank over to synthetic. I did this on the last 2 bikes I owned without a problem.
