Default Oil for all 3?

I am getting close to my first 1000 mile oil change on my 2021 Sport Glide and I would like to use Mobile 1 20w50w oil which is a lot less money than harley oil,can I use this oil in the crank case,primary and transmission?
Any recommendation on black oil filter?
Thanks

That’s what the manual calls for.

All you guys are stupid cuz you don’t think like I do

Subjectivity of oil threads generally lead to a beat down. That said, you could also consider using Mobil 1 75/140 gear oil in tranny. Gear oil has always been my preference in a transmission. Jus’ sayin’

You/can use that in all 3. But, is it the best…probably not.
- use the oil you referenced in the motor. Then application specific in the primary and tranny. Such as HD Formula+ in the primary, and BelRay in the tranny. Your clutch & tranny will be happier, and shift smoother,
