Its jsut mild steel, weld it. Also, make sure all engine mounts are tight. That is usually what breaks frames/mounts

[Wiz636]

Weld it up. If it is a TTR125 I would invest in a BBR frame cradle also.

[tjscott2012]

make sure to remove the paint on the break, get a good ground, and a low heat setting, and weld it up. i recommend grinding the weld down in case you want to sell it someday

Besides welding add some gussets and reinforcements along with the BBR cradle, when my son's broke, the top mount on the head also broke and was welded, the gussets were added in front of the air box where the main back bone Y's off to the 2 tubes going to the swing arm front mounts. If your frame broke it is just the start, we broke 2 rear hubs, squared rims, bent axles, etc, after that,might be time for a bigger dirt bike, or 1 made for the abuse. mike
