Rear Suspension 'dogbone' Needed

Ok, I broke one of the 'Dogbones' in my rear linkage.

It is the new type with a bolt.

After a lot of thinking, it probably was my fault. I think when I lubed it last time there was still silicone grease in the threads. So the locktite couldn't hold- the bolt backed out and must have jammed against the swingarm, breaking the shaft. The too much for one side still left when I hopped over something.

Anyway, the dealer ordered the part, but OSSA sent the wrong one! There appears to be a mixup with the part numbers in the manual.

So...does anyone know where one may be?

They are going to try and get one, but I'm looking also.

Please let me know.

Thanks!

I just got a call from Lewisport, they have souced one for me and I should have it shortly.

I guess things are still settling out after the merger with GasGas.

They really worked hard to get the part quickly.
