Quick question- can anyone tell me if the standard dogbones are stainless?

Cheers.

A quick answer. No.

If you want stainless give me a shout. I sell them on EBay but can offer free Uk mainland postage if sold here

Mine are stainless already which I thought probably wasn't standard (as you've both very kindly confirmed).

I stripped the back-end just to see what state it was in and found the swinging arm bearings had collapsed and just about everything else was seized

I'm replacing all bearings and seals including the swinging arm centre tube as that was also shagged and have a shock from an MT07 to go in, so will see how that works.

Dogbones are 155mm between centres- you wouldn't happen to know what the standard ones are?

Ta!

Cheers Stig. The MT07 shock is a bit shorter than standard so will see what the ride height looks like once it's back together.
