I can't imagine a mechanic putting a split link on a Fazer?
For starters they'd be lucky to even find one that size!
Sounds to me like a sloppy bit of riveting.

The mechanic has been round and fitted the new proper link that I got. Watched him fit it. No problems. He was very apologetic. Now, new tyres to be fitted Saturday and scrubbing in this weekend. I think the thermals will be needed.
