Does anybody out there know of a product that reliably repairs the kind of plastic found in off road- dirt bikes? Any help is greatly appreciated

Years ago, when FIBERGLASS was used, all we had to do was take a trip to K-Mart and buy some fiberglass auto body putty...and go from there.
But now, we have ABS..tougher than fiberglass but equally more difficult to repair. There ARE patch kits...found in the auto parts stores.

I don't have any personal experience with it but Whitehorse Press sells some plastic repair kits and books.

Not sure if it's the right kind of plastic repair stuff, I think its more for hard plastic rather then the flexible stuff on dirt bikes, But.
