If anyone could help me I would appreciate it

That bearing is a 1 inch the yamaha factory bearing is mm which is a tad smaller than the 1 inch. Make sure you get the right bearing. Maxdlx

After numerous hours of research, I have found the Yamaha service part to be cheaper (provided you have a good discount source) than small quantities of any cross referenced bearing. The stock bearings are part of a pillow block assembly that was special packaged for Yamaha, so you can't get the bearing alone. There are other manufacturers, but the prices are high due to low volumes.
 
Should be about $25 USD for either the clutchside drive axle or jackshaft bearings. They do not come with set screws, so get them too if you do not have the old ones.
 
I stand corrected - With Yamaha's price hike on parts late last year, and more availability of the clutchside drive axle bearing - You should NOW be able to get the bearing for $15 - $20 USD.

UPDATE: wow that was confusing . . . what I meant to say was you should be able to get a cross referenced bearing at a bearing supply house cheaper.

I would be very surprised if the same were true for the jackshaft bearing though.
