I've been through 4 sets of bearings on my motor and changed them each time at 15K miles - all showing a lot of wear and into the copper substrate on the upper bearings. It wasn't until the last bearing change which I put 18K miles on, with the most severe use in that bearing set (several roadcourse events) and upon inspecting them found that the two alterations I made to the lubrication system resulted in the bearings looking like I just put them in there. A very clear difference from previous sets of bearings.
