Arc Welding

[sira]

Dear All

I got 98 Honda hornet bike and the steering stopper needs to be re- welded. this stopper is a metal piece and most of the time handle Colum will hit this place and stop. currently this part needs to be filled by metal.

I have heard that motor cars they remove battery terminal before weld. I could do that . but bit a nervous that this arc welding could damage other electronics, such as CDI , rectifier..etc

please let me have your views on this

If you remove the Battery and ground the bike properly it wont harm the electronics however it will deteriorate the metal of your frame, try using mig welding it will prevent oxidization.
