Hals H-D used to sell them for the race XB's I think?

I don't know if Hals would still have some unless they stocked a bunch back in the day.

There are a few advertising in Roadracing World (print)

You'd need primary dimensions to give them.

Probably a dumb question, but what is the advantage of ceramics (over a normal high quality bearing) on a race bike or street bike?

Pricey, what is your goal. Figure 10x cost of normal for what advantage. If you were searching for that last mph at the saltflats to get your record---maybe.
