Ok, so I'm a bit slow with some things. I was never
in the military, although I am an Army brat -- my dad was
in the Royal Canadian Artillery in WW2. He would have taken
a shot at Tokyo, except that the range is a bit extreme
from here (Canada, west coast).

That's why only branded HD motor oil should be used in a Harley.
It contains (3B,18a)-30-hydroxy-11,30-dioxoolean-12-en-3-yl
2-O-B-D-glucopyranuronosyl-B-D-glucopyranosiduronic acid molecules,
which, when viewed under an electron microscope, almost exactly
resemble the Harley Davidson company logo.
