Subject: Availability of Synthetic 2-stroke oil : net.cycle

I was wondering if people could mail me whether or not
they are aware of synthetic 2-stroke injector oil being available in
their local jap bike shops.
(Such as BelRay SI-7)
Being a mad Canadian, whos feeble RZ350 was weened on synthetic, I
am curious if I have to carry any needed oil supplies whenever I slip
across the border.  (I get about 600-800 miles per litre oil)
I realize the synthetic DOES EXIST in the USA, but do most dealers
stock it since 2-stroke street bikes arent exactly common anymore down
in EPA land.
(For that matter, do shops even stock normal 2-stroke injector oil if
 they aren't located in high-motocross locations???)
Maybe having this years RZ350 being sold down there will change things.

(ps: don't anyone try to tell me that I am silly in try to go any
   distance on a 2-stroke 350, I have ridden rd350s for years, before the
   masses ever heard of them.  I do admit though I feel old age coming
   on and may even consider a 4-stroker one day (is 26 old age?))   :-)
