If it needs bearings, it probably has a worn armature and brushes. I'm afraid your looking at new or used, sporto.

On my SD, I tried to figure how to get it apart to replace the bushings (no bearings in this thing), but found that the casing of the motor was staked or welded together, leaving no way to change them, and barely any room to change the brushes!

I'd suggest finding a used one, or buying a replacement motor. You'll occasionally find them affordably priced on ebay.
