Need a bit of advice....
A mate has a bike frame that has had some spot welds break that hold a top box on to a frame. The spot welds are on the rear subframe of the bike and so the part is not easily removable (without 1/2 day dismantling).
If we disconnect the battery & ECU is it reasonable to weld the frame in-situ (TIG)? I have memories of the Long Way Round vivid in my mind and don't want to make a minor problem into a major one for the sake of a few hours dismantling.
