So i looked at the leak again and i sure its the rear shock, does it have oil as well as nitrogen gas. If so do i need to rebuild the shock. It seems like its on the inside and it runs down to the back and drips out the end cap.

Should end up costing about 150 to have it rebuilt.

You can try Rassinci Racing in Stewartsville NJ. They do race suspension mostly for dirt but their wrench says it is no problem to do the Buell shock

The next upgrade will buy the works or most of the Penske. Good luck
