Default Looking for a local source of Trans fluid

I live in Southern NJ and I have a question for other local in the south NJ area.

Where I can I get Red Line Heavy ShockProof or Spectro Heavy Duty Platinum 6-speed Transmission Oil? I'm not looking to start yet another thread about everyone's opinions on what is the best fluid to use. We all know there are more then enough threads about that here.

I know all about the online places but I'm specifically looking for a local place that I can ride to, walk in , and grab a bottle.

Thanks.

I use Redline in all 3 holes and order it here..... http://www.myoilshop.com.

Try this dealer code(675421) for a discount. Worked for me last time I ordered, not sure if it's still good.

Try calling the Indy shops in your area.

Cycle gear does not carry heavy shockproof, they have the V-Twin transmission oil with shockproof and 80 weight motorcycle gear oil with shockproof. Autozone has Redline Water Wetter but doesn't carry any other Redline products.

I've been calling the local indys and no luck so far. One place will put red Line in if I have the bike in for service, but they don't sell it.

AutoZones around here don't carry it.

Since I posted this I did call the closest Cycle Gear to me, which is in Springfield, PA and they do not have either on the shelf (or the V-Twin transmission oil with shockproof, which I believe is the same as the Heavy ShockProof) but said they may be able to order it. So they could be the winner.

Mt Holly Powersports in Burl County is a Spectro dealer but doesn't carry the 6 speed synthetic. May be able to order it for you. I got it online.

NOt the same. The V-Twin transmission oil with shockproof is green and the shockproof heavy is red

Exactly. Shockproof Heavy has the color and consistency of Pepto Bismol, I almost had to force myself to pour it into the tranny the first time.
