Motorcycle Aluminum Radiator repair

Took a small hit/ding to my lower front seam on the outlet tank side. Can't see it but drips out during operations.

Tried stop leek and JBW on seem, NoGo. Need shop repair or new one is $750.00

Any Shops that can handle this??

That’s a bummer. What about something on EBay?

I had an SV one that leaked not on a seam. I took it to a repair guy, not in Ohio, who said he fixed and "pressure tested it" with air twice and it still dripped until I JBW it.

Fixing might depend on if bent open or  cracked would be harder.

Someone here fixed a subframe with these-

Checked E-Bay $95.00 but...Only up to 2012. checked they don't match up.

I am going to try to pressure it up and try to find the leek, may have to peel back the flange then I can try to JBW it if I can see the sweet spot.

I'll just have to put a new one on my Christmas list just below the 2022 Black Honda Monkey.
