See this thread:
http://trx850.motomaniac.net/forum/view ... f=5&t=5308
Then pm Tarwetijger for the information regarding just `how` the repair is carried out, it involves cutting the two cranks and welding.
As for who could do it for you if you get another crankshaft? Look on EvilBay, there`s a company peddling their TRX crankshaft services.
