You will like the ceramics. Motors spin over so much easier when cold or hot.
Instant throttle response too.
We use the Answer ceramics here, and find them excellent.
The only problem I have heard of with running a ceramic front bearing (any brand), is that the shock loading from the starter box is pretty hard on them, and may cause bearing wear and failure sooner than their steel counterparts.
I haven't had any problems as yet. The cost of a front ceramic is negligible anyway, and I think the performance benefits far outway the cost of changing the front bearing a little more often.
