how often do you replace your?

Or how often do you burn yours out?

Thanks

I use a compression testser to check and see when i need to re-ring, once it gets to about 150psi I tear it down and go through it.

in race conditions they wear much faster of course, and Ive seen them need to be replaced after 3-4 races, and others that were weekend warriors, trail riders etc, last for many yrs, it all depends on skill level of rider,engine assembler, maintanence,weather/jetting, premix,riding conditions etc so each is diffrent, hope this helps:)
