Steering head bearings are bad. Got the lower race off of the yoke but kind of damaged the seal. Got a new lower bearing from a local bearing supplier but it did not come with a seal. They said they could not get the seal as the seal is an integral part of the bearing. They even called up Koyo and Koyo said they do not have this bearing in the US. So what to do?
Can a seal be had? Does anyone have a part number for the seal. Or should I repair the old seal and reuse it? Or should I take the bearing back to the supplier and order one from Triumph for 3 times the price? Or does it really require a seal?
Thanks,

you need the seal it keeps dust and grit out of the tapered rollers , GET THE SEAL
Sorry to be dense, but where can I get just the seal?
