Motor oil every 2,500 miles, primary every 5,000 miles, tranny every 10,000 miles. Like clock work.
One of my dealerships offers a "LIFETIME MAINTANCE PROGRAM" when buy your bike. (For the original owner only) In 2009, I payed $1500.00 for this package.
I basically been getting my maintance done for free since about my 12.5K service!!!

engine oil 5k, primary 10k, tranny 20k. just like the manual says. To change earlier than that unless you have some severe usage is not advantageous.
Modern oils are designed to go further. But is so little cost do what you like. full disclosure, I own exxon/mobile oil stock.

Harley Davidson says the engine oil and filter every 5,000 miles, the primary oil every 10,000 miles and the transmission oil every 20,000 miles.
I do the engine oil and filter every 5,000 miles with full synthetic oil and the primary and transmission oil both every 10,000 miles with full synthetic oil.
