Fix or replace?
.006 thou T.I.R....I'm thinking replacement here. The more you bend it, the weaker it gets. -ZXtra

Pretty hard to imagine someone bending the rear axle. I suppose it is possible. I HAVE seen transmission output shafts get bent!! My '83 GS1100E has a bent trans output shaft. I am changing to a different set of crankcases and transmission on that bike right now.
Big question --- how did your output shaft get bent?? Too tight on chain tension..... or maybe some hard part passed through your transmission gears??? If your output shaft is bent you will need to tear everything down and replace all that is "fucked"!! The output shaft bearing (nearest the sprocket) won't live for very long if you have a bent output shaft.

Its the front ! i bought it use .The only way he
could bent that shaft is he put the chain to tight and put
a big ass girlfriend on the back!But its not mutch
For sure im not oppening the motor this winter
maybe next one if its get bad. its even hard to fell it on the chain.
im sure im not the only one but 99% will never notice
a little difference like that .you have to put the chain just a little tight and turn the wheel to feel it a little.I saw a lot of bike with that problem
thinking it was the chain !!mine with chain normal
adjustement will never notice that!I am way to fussy
i work to mutch with precision! but its not not right on!
