I hear about this stuff all the time but can't find it here in Saskatchewan.
Hey op. Join up at hdforums. Send a pm to twiZted biker. He has more experience with your model bike than most men on the planet. He will tell ya what to use. He has a 73 with a 93 engine he built himself. In this particular forum he is pretty much as expert as they come. Or just google his name. His answers will be all over the forum. I'm pretty sure he will tell ya either straight 50 or 60 simply because of the bikes low oil pressure and you need that film strength at idle or your looking at metal on metal and premature wear.
Forget dual viscosity for your bike. You need more for more reasons than 1.
Merry christmas
