What year is the 250R? I think if the axle really moves a lot, it could either be the bearings, or the chain tensioners or both. If the chain tensioner bolts get striped, the rear end will move a LOT. I would be sure to check the chain tensioners on both sides. They are fairly inexpensive to buy, and you can get them on ebay.

It does sound like the bearings.
The bearings and seals are fairly cheap from Dennis Kirk or your local bearing shop.
