+1 I change my clutch bearing roughly every gallon or so. Most of the guys I race with change them every race, which I think is crazy. Another thing is I have never tried ceramic bearings. To much cash for me when I can get panther, avid, or ready rollers for a dollar a piece and they last a good while
