Dino to Synthetic to Dino?

I recently busted my oil pan while running red line 10/40 synthetic. I fixed the pan and plan on useing valvoline10/40 dino to run the bike a few hours and drain it back out (due to price.) just to flush the engine.

Will switching from synthetic to dino oil hurt my engine?

No you will not hurt the engine. I just had to do the same thing cause when i had my bike stolen and since then recovered, i had synthetic in the bike but when the thieves took out the oil pan thus losing all my precious synthetic oil i had to put dino oil back in just for testing purposes to see if the motor was hurt before i spent more $$$ on oil if the motor was done.
The motor is fine and synthetic oil is back in
