Dominator monoshock query

[domko62]

Hi folks

I have a 2000 Dominator (X plate) and have noticed pitting on the chrome surface of the monoshock unit. Can anyone tell me if this surface is a protective sheath or the real thing...in which case it'll probably knacker the seals in a short while. I'm asking as replacement units look different.

Cheers

If it's wider than say 1 cm or so then it's a cover, and no big deal.

I know the old RD02 dommies have those covers and it can look awful, but it's no biggie.
