(+1) on PB's feedback.
BTW: Not weird. Many here at the Forum change their own fluids too.
Honda GN4 10W40 and Motul 10W40 5100 (semi-synthetic) is what I have been using without issue.

LR,
That’s will be the way I will most likely go also but am interested if any one has ever ran Amsoil in their CB? I have a 2014 HD Ultra with 35,000 miles with Amsoil and no problems.
