If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

Looking at Suzuki's web site, there is no mention of galvanising anywhere for any vehicle.
You would have thought that they would trumpet it high and low if they did galvanise them.
I suspect they just get the usual electrophosphoric treatment and a quick lick of water based paint before they ship them out.
Can anyone confirm that any are standard galvanised (like in writing from suzuki, or by simply paint strippering some of the paint off and looking?) I suspect it is an urban myth.
