It's just aluminum, take it to a good welder and it shouldn't be a problem.
You are correct in that it's just a rider perch, and place for all that crap under your seat.

I broke off one of those nubs on the frame that hold the foot peg braket. I took it to a motorcycle repair shop and the guy tig welded the piece back on. So far so good, it is now attached probally stronger than before. Just find someone that can tig weld well and it should be fine. Good luck.
