ceramic

anyone have any thoughts on ceramic bearings for motors , wheels. I know they cost 3 times more ?

Anyone tried ceramic wheel bearing? I am told: a. no rust b. lower drag c. resistant to heat d. last longer

Performance Coatings in Auburn, Wa did this ceramic coating on the head/mid pipe for me. Works as good or better that wrap and doesn't rust the pipe out like wrap will over time. No clearance issue either as with wrap. Ti satin color - $135 for heat shield, header/mid pipe.

I have noticed on more than one occasion hearing liquid percolating in my bike when I stop after a tight slow section. I am not dripping coolant out the overflow hose and have not needed to add any either. I removed the gas cap and really dont see the gas boiling so not sure whats up BUt dont...

Has anybody tried this and has an idea how good it works? http://www.swaintech.com/ for instance provides this service (found their ad in Cycle News). No, I don't intend to have my headers coated myself.
