For you welders out there
The front sprocket area of our trx- atc 250 r's are prone to breaking around the case saver area. If a person were to mig weld the area around the sprocket boss , with the engine assembled, would the 'arc' jump around the bearing balls area and cause damage?
ALSO, Weld wont stick to copper so could i potentialy screw in a copper bolt to the remnants of the boss and then weld slowly to create a new place to bolt to, then remove said bolt and helicoil it.
Just a thought!
