  • I have sets of both:

    Sena 30k Cardo Packtalk Bold.

    In my opinion the Sena 30k is terrible audio quality for music very tinny sound, no bass reproduction (not the primary purpose, but nice to have) and decent quality for communication. I had issues with being able to hear my riding partner, and issues with being able to hear while on the phone as well. I will say that the person on the other end did not have issues with hearing me (comms, or phone calls). Could have been placement of the speakers in my helmet, though I tried additional spacers and adjusting speaker placement with little to no change for myself.

    Cardo Packtalk with JBL speakers is excellent quality for music (excellent given the size of the speakers, I mean they are 40mm speakers in a helmet not audiophile units) and decent quality for communication. I can say in the half dozen times I’ve needed to answer a phone call I could hear clearly, and the person I was talking to was unaware that I was on my bike.

    In the end my wife and I use the Cardo system. More expensive than the Sena but overall we have been happy with them.

    Unfortunately I do not have any experience outside the above. Comms are expensive and at some point I had to prioritize cash to other wants/needs.


  • While a direct migration does not exist, since you have access to the data on both instances it would theoretically be possible to export/import the database tables from one to the other. That will require digging and knowledge on your end to figure out which data needs to move over.

    Another option would be to duplicate the database from the first instance and connect to that front the second instance. From there make the changes to the second instance by hand.

    Just make sure before you go mucking about with and database imports you have a good solid backup in case things go south.

    Note: The above is theoretical as I have not setup am instance of Lemmy of my own. Just typical of how a database works.




  • Wholeheartedly agree. I believe 100% they are over priced. I knew it was over priced when I bought it for the wife’s bike. Then again, I tend to believe just about ever accessory that says “for motorcycle” is over priced. And yet we pay those prices to keep our knees in the breeze, and that shit eatin grin on our faces.


  • Not going to link a specific site, that way you can choose where to purchase from. But here is a search result for the product the above poster is referring to.

    Cramp Buster

    I don’t currently use one myself as my current bike has cruise control. I will say I have used these in the past on my previous 3 bikes that did not have cruise. Yes an absolute game changer for long rides.

    IF you have a decent amount of extra cash burning a hole in your pocket the Atlas Throttle Lock is on a whole other level of amazing.

    Upgraded my wife from the Cramp Buster to the Atlas. She will not be going back.


  • Could not have said it better!

    I am not sure what the general expectation was from the mass influx of people coming from Reddit, I can say it saddens me to see the daily barrage of complaints. Lately it is not even constructive criticism, it’s just all out bitching about this or that…

    Lemmy is ALPHA software, and suffering from a HUGE influx of new users. There are and will be growing pains.

    Jerboa is ALPHA software, and suffering from a HUGE influx of new users. There are and will be growing pains.

    Either get involved with development, move on to something else, or deal with it. Posting a daily rant (most of which have already been stated, and addressed or will be) is helping absolutely no one.
