I thought you could just pull out the obstruction, slap it all back together and be on your way. you could minimize the cost if you replace the wear ring / add a liner yourself and have the impeller refurbished instead of replaced with a new one. I'm not seeing more than two hours in labor there.
 
Before this obstruction it had pretty bad cavitation if you got on it, I knew it was in need of some work as its been abused for a few years now
 
sorry to hear about the problem. How do you like that Honda and is is maintenance free like I would expect? Turbo?
 
I like it, yes its been issue free and I just beat on it and put it away. Turbo yes and I had it hopped up with a chip and new inter cooler so it was a 60 mph ride for awhile but I sold the chip and kept the inter cooler, 50 something is fast enough. Running it at top speed all the time is just gonna kill it earlier then it should die.
