Anyone in Charlotte have 250cc of 5w shock oil?

Title says it all.

I was an idiot and depressurized my air bumps with the wrong end up and lost all the shock oil. We'll call it the idiot tax.

Check with a motorcycle shop, they would likely stock it. I've got a bottle here at the shop, but theres probably only 100-150mL (cc) left. I've got 7w, 10w, and 15w if that does you any good.

Pretty much any motorcycle shop will have shock oil, if you're in a hurry.

I called a bunch and nobody carried it in the area. They all carry fork oil, but I read that fork oil shouldn't be used in place of shock oil. I'm not an expert and don't want to risk killing brand new air bumps with fork oil.

That sounds ridiculous to me. I would use the 5w fork oil.

Try BSR Products or CV Products in Mooresville. That is where I used to get my oil. It is oil designed for racing applications not motorcycles.
