Having used both Sena and Cardo I'm a big Cardo fan. 

Sena isn't terrible. But Cardo worked over longer distances and battery lasted longer from personal experience. Also if a tonne of you have them they just link up and you can have shit yarns all day. 

As far as models, they have a tonne, we got the 'top of the line' one back when we ordered which was the Cardo Packtalk Bold. Cheaper models mean less comms range if you're yarning with someone. 

@GuyWithAviators ours have JBL speakers you spoon head. <3

Ah I was thinking of this upgrade set

What was the helmet headset/bluetooth/intercom of choice for everyone?

I bought some aliexpress one a few years ago which couldn't compete with noisy bikes and helmet wind-noise once you got any sense of speed on.

@Mop Head and I have Cardo packtalk bold. Never used a Sena to compare to but I like my Cardo. Can buy upgraded JBL speakers for music but the ones out the box are still good. 
 

Def wasn’t cheap but never failed on us, worked well around cape. We got a twin pack and split the bill. Battery was lasting a day easy with music and yarns all day. Both of us have crashed and knocked out helmets a bit and they didn’t fall off

I suspect the moped on the left has died and is under tow.

It’s an Ubco 2x2 and the 50kph electronically limited speed was a bit punishing on the 70k road we found ourselves on so it needed some help from the others. 

Maybe these guys can help? Again seems to be Daihatsu stuff but they can possibly arrange the shipping for your stuff anyway.

I never figured out how to use Shopee either but I just googled the part I wanted and found this company selling it on Facebook and asked if they can send to me if I paid with international bank transfer.

I got some ZerOne coil overs for my Daihatsu, key was finding out what Perodua model was the same chassis.

Potentially risky but worked for me lol.

I’ll be around the week of the 21st of Nov and keen to meet and have random yarns with strangers off the internet.

Keen. Pub would even be good. 

Looks like a wet weekend forecast anyway, no stress Mark.

Shit, wife informed me last night we have a family thing planned for the saturday.  Not getting out of it apparently.

I'm out sorry.

Was so keen to give this a go and meet a few more off here ... will make sure I can make it next year.

yeh I’m 100% out too. I haven’t been able to get the Friday off for cape ride, but I got my Suzuki Adly going anyway. 

Let’s do a local ride on the Sunday @oldrx7? 
 

Suspension set up on these is cut down c90 struts and leaking maybe fake YSS on the Wave.

I enjoy these shitbox updates. I replaced the gearbox on my GA15 b12 Sentra wagon with a PaP unit. It came out hilariously easy. Although it wasn’t funny when my flatmate was lying under the car and I undid some bolts up top and the engine dropped down fairly quickly towards his face only being held up with the clutch cable.

Keen. Open to ideas on venue etc. 

Happy with Marks again, or venture elsewhere. Daylight savings are handy now too.

Yea ive done all over 5 years so why the fuck not. Not sure what bike to bring along, my back tells me i should bring the CT185 again, but I have taken a different bike every eastcape,

2017 - CT110

2018 - ST90

2019 - GP125

2020 - CT185

2021 - XR250

2022 - ???????

The trombone was the first bike I built, and its never done an eastcape, so parts of me say I should take it. Its currently still also broken from garlic masters. Maybe its time for an ass punishing on that

Also who here has Cardo's? keen as for some quality shit yarns during the ride this year

Yeh got a cardo packtalk bold 3. Shit was great for music last year 

Top spec shit boxes.

Entry list seems to be lacking Foamers?

@Mop Head @GuyWithAviators @Shakotom ?

Ah yeah, this. 
 

I broke my bike doing 42 traverse a wee while ago, then just left it on the back of the Ute since then. It was growing some funky mould last I checked. 
 

Might finish the Suzuki Adly combo and roll that for max punishment.

Fuck that looks good. What make/model size steels are they? Plenty of dish 

I'm currently looking at fitting 14" k12 steels. 

Doesn’t mention make just tire size.
