Can the welds be ground down without compromising them?
Tough to say without actually seeing the welds. Depends on whether it was a fillet weld, butt weld, crack... and how the guy prepped it before welding. Got any pics?

I say no big deal, grind away minimum amount necessary to fit up and ride it. If it breaks get it rewelded. A good welder can make it stronger than OEM as long as he/she has the bike to see how it has to fit.
