It continues to not seem clear.
"Shipping oil" and "break in oil" are not the same thing. On many machines (besides motorcycles even) the manufacturers say to discard/recycle whatever oil they put in at the factory. Right after you unpack it. I've an air conditioning compressor box underfoot that says exactly that on it.

Break in oil should have 500 miles of actual use on it, depending on the bike.
