I pulled the front end off my 79 Special to replace the triple tree (steering head) bearings. There is a seal on the bottom of the lower bearing. This seal was in bad shape by the time I get the bearing off. The local bearing supply can get me the bearings but not the seal. I called Yamaha and they told me that the bottom bearing was discontinued. Anybody know of a source for this seal?

Bob, the following are Timken bearing numbers, and you are correct, any bearing supply house should be able to get them for you, but not the seal as the seal is sold as part of the original bearing.
Top: 32005X 92KA1
Bottom: 32006X 92KA1
This is the OEM bearing number from Koyo, and it comes with the seal.
KOYO part (original) Hi-cap 32006JRRS-2
Check on their website for a supplier near you. They were very helpful when I inquired, directed me right to a Koyo supplier here.
