You know the guys,with 100000 miles on their bikes already and NOT using motorcycle oil.
Motorcycle specific oils were developed for shared sump bikes,not Harleys. So ANY 20w-50,changed at regular intervals will lead to many,many reliable miles.
You don't need a motorcycle specific oil. A fool and his money are soon parted
