Would it be worthwhile to have the motor repaired after i get a new one. That way i would have a backup.

Personally I would say no but others might disagree with me. My feeling is that a rebuilt motor MIGHT work flawlessly or might die very quickly so it's a gamble and it often costs almost as much to rebuilt a motor as buy a replacement. Also, not all people rebuilding motors have the same skill level so you really don't know how good a job was done.
