auto mechanics are not fabricators. they wouldn't know what to do without an OBD reader.
as far as what you did, your not going fast, so balance doesn't matter much. outside of that a u-joint is a u-joint. if it fits it will work. maybe won't last as long as factory but who cares? build another.
when I replaced mine I couldn't just replace the U, the yoke was destroyed.
way to be inventive and adventurous. you never know what you can do or what can be done until you try it. besides it's a 20 year old bike. great thing to experiment on.
