I have a few thousand miles on REDLINE SHOCKPROOF (think that's how its labelled) smooth shifting so far. RPM (old ARMORY on Dover/Rollinsford line where you had the magic bus) sells it. i used it for years in my Road King with no probs. I even spoke to a tech guy from REDLINE and was told this was suitable for NORTONS (yes i know he would be biased but so is everyone when it comes to fluids!!). Plus it's RED (or closer to pink). anyway your inquiry should generate some action here - maybe??

Since the late 90's I have changed to 75W-90 synthetic.
It is available as Mobil 1 and Valvoline SYNpower. They is likely no difference.
The change from my earlier choice was dramatic, especially in very cold gear changes.
Other brands of similar specification are probably fine also.
Usually available at NAPA...
