Thanks for the replies, that helped me a lot!!
I drove as carefully as possible to Arequipa, and checked the rim from time to time, the crack didn't chance at all.
Also the crack goes through to the other side of the rim but just at the first few milimeters as far as i saw it correctly. (didn't take the tire off completely when repairing the tube)
Will go to Peru Motors (thanks Simon R) in the next couple of days and try to find a good welder.
Also need to check the elektric, after riding in the Uyuni Desert the bike isn't the same as before
Probably going to buy a new Excel Rim and ship it to Lima.
A friend is living there who could probably help me if problems with Customs should appear, my spanish isn't too good.
That may not be the cheapest option (~400$) but a friend is going to visit in Columbia and i really don't want to risk an accident with her.
Also love to go offroad and considering to ship the bike to Russia and go all the way back to Austria, a good rim might be helpful
