Working on a bike, need a mounting tab on the inner primary welded back on. Unfortunately the part is hard to find but not that valuable, or I'd just buy another one.

Can anyone here tig this up? It's not super precision and doesn't even hold oil on this bike. (Belt).

Sounds like a job for FlexSeal :)

My assumption is that this is a motorcycle part?

Got a picture of the project? The welding is usually the easy part. Cleaning, degreasing, removing anodizing, grinding, and cooking impurities out of aluminum castings are usually the time consuming parts.

Post a pic, I might be able to help.

Just depends on the material, but I should be able to stick it back together. You can even drop it off to me in Broomfield. Let me know.
