do you trust your life to your welding ability i know i don't mine. all i have to say on the matter.
I don't weld but my buddies do at work so I'll ask them what they think.I trust their welds with my life...I have to, I hang off the sides of cranes with d-rings they weld up for me to hook my harness to.I also ride a v-star that has the neck raked and I ride that with confidence.It's a sick rake with a total of 52 degree's.
I hear what your saying and I should probably just get a new one but I think my welders could make it as strong if not stronger than stock.I haven't asked them yet cause I'm on vacation but I'll probably swing by work.
they also extended my swing arm and welded the back half of my frame.

It would probably be cheaper and safer to replace it.
your probably right.I'm gonna research the part just in case my welders don't recommend it..thanks

Depending on what it is they are only $10-20 at any salvage yard... the lower might be a bit more $$.
