It depends on how worn your basket and hub are and how you ride.

Wait till you get to 30k, like I did with mine.
It sounded like an automatic weapon.

I can think of one New Yorker who has about 36K on his dry clutch, basket and plates are notched badly, but it doesn't slip yet.  59K on my wet clutch.

That would help your clutch last longer, yes.
