Oh no not an oil thread... let's stick on topic, LOL

I am picking up my ZL1 next week and have been reading through the performance manual. They suggest 0W-40 or 5W-40 Dexos 2.

A lengthy search online only revealed Motul 8100 X-Clean 5W-40 as my only reasonable option here in North America. My dealer has never heard of it and doesn't have it on any list that they can order (either weight). They are going to look into it for me.

I know I can find 5W-30 in Dexos1 or Dexos2. I'm sure you guys have seen this but here is the list I was using to find approved Dexos2: http://www.centerforqa.com/dexos-brand2/

What have you guys been doing to find 0W-40 or 5W-40 Dexos 2?
