What year and model bike is it?

I think the oil they put in new bikes is break in oil, at least it used to be. It's thinner and I remember when I did my first oil change on my 1600 Nomad the oil was beat to piss and stunk. Not so much after that. If you have a 1700, did you drain both drain locations? There are two plugs.
