Anyone noticed that DK now selling parts vapour blasted?

Anyone noticed that DK now selling quite a few parts vapour blasted ... Like this 400F rear hub?

But it's been blasted without stripping out the bearings etc, which sounds dodgy to me.
Plus it's probably doubled the price they would normlly sell a similar item for, not blasted.

Oddjob:
Plus, when you take it apart there are loads of areas not vapour blasted. Waste of time and not a good idea IMO.

Handy for DK though to see damage before sending. Should be totally dismantled though before doing that.

Just a selling technique but, at least you can inspect to see if the hub liner has any cracks  ;) 

Matt_Harrington:
If they didn't take it apart, there will be blast medium all over the inside. Hope no one fits it without dismantling....

It has got that rare chain guard the CB400F came with originally though. You could get one from DSS spares like that but at a price that probably put most people off. The one in the image here looks bashed about enough to have me wonder if it has been retro fitted?
