Ceramic Bearing, why no one are using them?
Just curious as to why no one are using ceramic ball bearings for their builds? I have ceramic bearings in my Ducati race bike and it makes a * of difference.

They would most likely cost more than the entire motor itself.

I use ceramic bearings in all of my 4 stroke R/C engine builds. In one engine I used the hybrid - ceramic bearings, and in another engine I used the full ceramic - peek bearings. And man those bearings even looked sweet... Black with white balls!

When I have to fully tear down my NS engine, I will most definitely install full ceramic bearings! -I've already started saving up my moneys for them!
