Any help would be appreciated because I do have a trip coming up in about 6 months or so but the date of travel is wide open. Thanks
If you don't mind changing planes, there are SFO-LAX-TPE award seats on 10/24 and 10/31. SFO-LAX is on UA economy. LAX-TPE is EVA Royal Laurel.

When EVA joined *A in 2013, I saw many EVA biz class award seats on United.com. Lately it is difficult to see such seats until 14 days before departure.

Depending on your United premier status, you can always book something then switch to EVA later. October is not a busy time for SFO-TPE travel. If you wait, you are likely to find an award seat, especially on days EVA operates 3 flights from SFO to TPE.
