Hi guys,I fell off again and this time broke the welded plate on my middle exhaust box,I took it to a local welding firm who tried to aluminium weld it, it wouldn’t take. So can anyone please advise what type of welding I need for this or if it’s possible. It looks as if it had been done before as there was splatter and burn holes,cheers guys

Sorry should have mentioned it’s a 2001 gasgas txt 280

I feel a bit of a **** now,seemingly it’s made of steel and can be arc welded as my local welders sorted it today. Whoopee back up the woods at the weekend?

Nothing wrong with feeling a bit of a ****! Its when you feel a bit of a @#£& thats when you need to worry?

Maybe you need to find a different local welder. Visually most materials should be identifiable, if not a magnet will be a start,applying a grinding disc gives plenty of clues,even down to the colour of the sparks if its a ferrous material. Good job its not a structural repair I'm thinking...
