Tank repair options

So, I'm trying to figure out my options. The tank mount at the front of the seat has snapped off with all the city pothole driving.

What would you guys do?

if it is not leaking use a ton of jb weld  do it in two or three steps. 1 clamp parts together at break apply enough to hold wait a day remove clamp  2 go to town with the stuff make it look nice let it dry and paint  3 go riding Smiley

I'D take it to a welder and see what it would cost to put some metal braces on it and braze it up.

I think both Hotprops and Justin's suggestions will work. Justin's approach should be permanent.
