Can't answer your question but can you put air in? It might be easier to simply replace the core. Sometimes they will include a couple when you buy the tool. It shouldn't cost but a few dollars...

Good picture. I put the same windshield on my wifes GZ250 and it really made a difference in comfort. It was an additional bonus not having to pay for lowers too.
