Is this hole fixable? Should I just leave it alone? Can I put another stud in there somehow (I dont see how)? Thats on Kims 600 sxr.

Cut out the loose track material. Take an old screw driver and heat it up til it's extremely hot. Then burn/seal the explosed chords in the riped section. It will help to stablize that particular damaged area of the track.

Thanks guys. I was a little worried because its on the outside belt. I will trim and melt. Kim is really starting to ride a little harder now that she has that sled.
 
outside belt is bad news no matter what you do. I would replace the track soon and when you stud again go square backers they might not look as nice but the do hold up better.
 
yup i wouldn't gamble on that track for too long, i blew a track at 100 on glare ice and i dont ever want to do that again. Guess where it ripped? Right at a stud pullout.
 
Studs are ok as long as you tighten them correctly, use the right backers, use the right studs and drill the track properly to begin with.
