Grease for Steering Head Bearings

Grease for Steering Head Bearings
The maintenance guide for my 2011 Ultra Classic recommends greasing the steering head bearings every 10,000 miles. I know HD has a specific grease for this (although I would imagine it is expensive), would another type of grease work just as well, e.g. lithium grease or all purpose grease? Or should I use the HD grease? Recommendations welcome. Thanks!

There really is no answer for your question! I've been riding bikes for almost 50 years and have only ever used what grease I had available. If you have to buy fresh grease flip a coin as to where you buy it. Doesn't take any effort to remove the majority of whatever grease was in there before. Do I grease head bearings every 10k miles? No!
