Just upgraded from original. Moto2 is a fantastic update, and the powered mont is a very welcome addition. Moto2 also adds speed limit on navigation & speedometer screens, very nice. I ride a custom Royal Enfield Continental GT 650, so a big rectangle navigation is unwelcome

Is there any issues regarding its pinlock. I’ve heard that the pinlock tends to touch the gasket of the helmet. And prone to scratches.

150 miles on my scr and 3 issues. Left the dealer with a faulty turn signal, its 46c where i live and the evap cannister is getting full and wont let the bike start, and lastly the bike shuts off in neutral putting the kick stand down and putting it back up still wont allow it to start needs to be in first or second. Other than that i really like it just annoying with the teething issues.

I have your solution. Do motorcycle reviews on any bike in stock, but do not release the video until the specific bike has been sold. Therefore, it's not marketing for your employer to try and sell the bike you're reviwing. I am a solutions man. You're welcome. ZG1400 rider from the Rangitikei district.

Thanks for the great review. You are probably getting cold because the jacket has wet out even if it hasn't got through the waterproof liner. Can't the waterproof liner be worn on the outside? That would stop the jacket wetting out and becoming cold.

Nice video! Had this helmet for a few yeara but only now ordered my first headset, so I hope you see this comment. Anyway, I think I found thr place where the speakers should go, but there is some sponge glued inside. Do I pull it out before sticking the speaker inside, or?
@MotoNZ
@MotoNZ 6 дней назад
Only pull it out if you need more space between your ears and the speakers. You don’t want the speakers touching your ears. Some have reported needing to cut a couple of millimeters of EPS out of the speakers holes.

With you being a Cardo ambassador why would you even bother to review another brand? There is zero chance that you would recommend a cheaper brand over a more expensive Cardo. Perhaps you are insulated from the cost-of-living crisis that is making life difficult for many. For those people who can't just work more hours or find spare money a cheaper brand may be ok until they can afford something better. It is a good thing to have the choice and if a cheaper brand allows someone to feel safe and reachable to family while riding then go for it.
@MotoNZ
@MotoNZ 6 дней назад
Fair point, and I assumed someone would bring this up sooner or later. I have made a solid effort to review the product fairly. I did tell Fodsports I was a Cardo ambassador when they reached out to me. Cardo are more expensive, but in my honest opinion, they are justified as they are a far superior product. Thanks for watching

Great comparison between Cardo and Sena. I personally went the Cardo edge for many of the same reasons you described. I am trying to connect my Cardo edge to the CB radio on the Goldwing. I know Sena has a freewire bluetooth unit, that will connect to the Cardo, but I heard you can’t transmit through the Cardo, only receive. Any thoughts?

Japan's answer to the BMW S1000XR. I really miss the 1250 Bandit they used to make. Shove below even 4,000 rpm was turbine-like, diesel-like. No 1L engine can do that. And that 1250 was affordable, unlike the GX.

Hi there. Thank you for your videos! We've tried a few other brands of intercom/bluetooth devices. None of them have good to any sound quality whether with intercom between driver and pilion or bluetooth with phone, over 60 km/h (37 miles/h). We're using full faced helmets. Will the Cardo Packtalk Edge work for us? Thanks!
@MotoNZ

In my experience, Cardo's Packtalk Neo, Edge and Pro offer clear "wideband" audio via DMC, and more than enough volume to use on the open road with or without earplugs.

Cardo does not have mesh in the sense that everyone can connect in a group ride without pairing. Cardo is for solo riders and Sena for people that have friends.

This is blatantly incorrect. Sena has open mesh and paired mesh. Cardo don’t have open mesh, but they do have private/paired mesh, known as DMC.
