2 stroke injector oil from a Honda dealer is best but if you need other options this is a good second choice.

If you want a oil that doesn't leave to much carbon behind.use the belray si7,yamalube 2t, or motul 710.All of these you can use in the stock oil injector.

Most likely, the bike had been sitting in storage for a while and the high volatiles had evaporated off, leaving a thicker substance. Premix oil is not noticeably thicker than injector oil.
