My average setup consists of a .5-1mm shim behind the collet (werks seems to need 2mm shim to clear the carb), 1 thin shim on top of the nut (I feel the cb spins better with the shim), then the bearing-clutchbell-bearing, and anywhere from 1-3 shims or so depending on slop. I leave about a .5mm slop for expansion on the end.
Thats what I do, play setup is very important as Jon mentioned if anyone has bearing issues or you find yourself replacing often during practice then your bearing is taking on too much pressure add a tad of play your bells should also spin for ever.
