A governor rotor assembly having a one piece rotor with a base portion generally perpendicular to the axis of rotation thereof with a parallel spaced cross member, the base portion having diametrically opposed tangentially extending U-shaped recesses formed therein with the open end thereof facing in the direction of rotation. The cross member is provided with similar diametrically opposed tangentially extending U-shaped recesses in facing relation and in general alignment with the U-shaped recesses of the base portion, with the cross member recesses facing opposite to the direction of rotation. A pair of counterweights have the pivot pins thereof configured for being pivotally received within the recesses by insertion therein by angularly positioning the pivot pin relative to a pair of facing recesses and then rotated until the pivot pin is generally parallel to the axis of rotation of the rotor.
