My 400f kickstart knuckle was cracked at the usual design weakspot. Since they are almost impossible to find and I'm not too concerned about originality I asked my expert welder relative if he could weld a plate onto the weak part for reinforcement. He did a great job tig welding it on. I then ground and filed the edges off and painted the bare steel with silver paint for protection. It's working fine on the bike and if it holds up I'll get the knuckle rechromed. It's much stronger than original so I don't expect any problems.
Not good for originality but can save cracked knuckles from the bin. 👍
