Part number for steering stem lower dust seal gs1100e

[first timer]

I can't find for the life of me a part number in the fiche for the lower dust seal, i found the shim but not the seal. Mine was ruined when i pulled the bearing. I already have the bearing so i don't want to order a allballs kit if i don't have to.

g'day, i reckon the "shim" is the lower dust seal (09181-30184) 30x40x1.5
i don't recall there ever being a dust seal plus a "shim"

When i pulled my triple apart, (oem stuff) there was a shim and a dust seal. 2 different item, plus the bearing. I ordered a all balls kit and also cross referenced that kit with a 2005 gsx750f that uses the same kit, and pulled it's parts fiche. That bike listed a lower "dust seal" so i order that to see if it fits for the future if need another.

I'll follow up once i get the parts.

Got the dust seals. Both the OEM and allballs seal look like they could work, the suzuki seal ID is a touch smaller then the stem OD but can be fixed quickly with few file passes or dremel. The allballs seal ID is a touch bigger then the stem OD. The OD of both seals is fine and the bearing will center the seal when it's all pressed together.

original seal is on the right, suzuki seal middle, all balls left
