    I've seen some turn up occasionally on Ebay.

    Other option is to remove the existing seals and take to a seal manufacturer, bearing shop or hydraulics shop and see if they have one. Should be a fairly easily replaceable item from these guys.

    rg is a fun bike, but not built to last. my one i restored gave me a lot of pleasure. One improvement though, a pair of rgv cans work much better, quieter and smoother.
