I think it was the 2000 gsxr750 that had the same size seal not the 600 but ive never compared just sure i read it somewhere. You could buy one at a cost of about £6 but if it dont fit please dont blame me.
You could maybe post on a gixer forum for a size.

If by chance you get stuck with nothing matching up I have a friend in Japan that can order parts. He does charge a fee depending on the amount you order.

Spoke to my mate who runs a bearing and seal supplies and if you can get an old one over to me we will see if there's an available alternative to OE.

Ive got an old seal here that i could send you VVS. As aboth, i gave the part number to rob (aka Marsbar), seems the price has gone up by £1 per seal.
