My balancer is shot. What to do?

[Mechanix311]

My counter balancer in my 250r is shot. I have it out because i am rebuilding the engine and the larger bearing on the balancer is very sloppy. It has alot of play in it and i know it is gonna fail sooner or later. Have you guys had good luck with rebuilding them or should i just send it off. I dont think you cant get the bearing from honda so would i just have to have a pro do it. Any advice is helpful. Thanks fellas

I would definately have someone do it that is a reputable machine shop. I had mine rebuilt for $60 and it was like new. Check with ESR or any reputable shop and I am sure that it will be around that price. It's worth knowing it was done right the first time. My .02
