hi,, i had my shock rebuilt last year by proaction,,but the other day, after riding in the woods where i run over lots of roots on my 125, i noticed about half a teaspoon of oil at the base of my rear shock at the bumper.

Is it normal for a bike to loose some oil due to that type of riding? or is my shock about to bust?
I'm hoping it was just fuel from one of the tubes that come from my carb.

If the oil doesn't smell like premix this is not a good sign.
