+1 with Dawg here. Motor oil in the motor, tranny lube in the tranny, and ATF in the primary. In other words the appropriate lube for the application.

No.
I use it in the engine only.
Formula + in the primary,
Just started using Mobil 1 90-140 Syn trans fluid in the trans. Seems to quiet it down a bit, and maybe even shift better. Was using their 70-90 Syn.
Having said that, something in my trans has been through the crusher. A lot of heavy metalic dust, even more then usual. Everything seems to be working properly, it just has me a little concerned.
For reference, 30,000 miles on her, a great many of those above 85 mph. I say that because I get a feeling most don't ride at those speeds, at least on a regular basis, and the trans harmonics might have something to do with it????
