Over 2500 miles of driving I would put in about 6 litres (i.e. at least twice the capacity of the sump) of fresh oil anyway... I only drain and re-fill when I take the sump off (n.b. I use a full-flow filter).
When touring I might start off with Halfords, Duckhams or Morris but when that runs low I use any 20W50 I can get - my current collection includes 'Classic' from Biltema in Sweden and 'Wolf' V-Twin oil from Germany... It all mixes quite happily and I've never yet lost a bearing to poor lubrication.
