It's hard to tell from those pictures, but maybe you can weld it back together?

This might give you the excuse you need to move up to a liquid cooled bike. If you are looking for one, I have one for sale cheap.

It might be possible to weld it back together but the way it broke actually bent the frame quite a bit. So it would need to be bent back to shape and that would just weaken it even more and would most likely just break again..

Welding it will work but not for a long period of time. The engine vibration, etc. will end by breaking again, as the frame will remain fragile.
I suggest that you save up for a good frame, then mount the engine that you already have.
