Someone got it done here a while ago. I got quoted 200ish for a recore. Makes better sense getting a larger one from Rick Oliver.

My Dad and I replaced the lower rad with one from a Peugeot Speedfight on my bike, you'll need to do a bit of work to make it fit but on the upside these rads are usually available on eBay for not a lot.

They are thinner cored though and IMO are not worthwhile as a replacement.
If you need it to put you on over winter, then good arrows!
