    Not sure Wikd, the scala’s are so easy to change form helmet to helmet, I have fitted and removed our 2nd ear phone set from Salina’s helmet to fit to Dan’s, Crash’s and now Mal’s I dont know how many times. Is a quick simple easy job :)

    Its so easy Dan has done it so how hard can it be really :P

    Whilst talking about noise and speed on the caves to caves ride after we found Aidtank on the ground we rode to the caves to get help. As anyone on the ride (which isn’t Dave as normal or any ride even if he says he will be there :laugh: ) would testify Crash and myself took of and even when we got up around 150kph (GPS recorded) across the limeburners turn of area we could still talk, just but could.

    I have been using it for 12 months now. My partner Salina and I use it 2 up and I have been using it bike to bike in the bush with Dan D, Crash and Mal 5.1 with great success.

    http://www.obtrailriders.com/index.php?option=com_kunena&Itemid=56&func=view&id=52991&catid=28#52991

    I will be wiring Micknmeld up this weekend for our ride. I rate the bluetooth as one of the best / fun things in my kit

    Crash and Mal 5.1 have both purchased the kits seen below

    CardoScalaRiderMultiset01.jpg

    The other amazing thing is how clear they are, I have been rang by Mick and Chicken for example whilst riding along and been talking to them and they haven’t picked I was on the bike riding

    I need to get back to the original thread and do a 12 month update soon I guess

    I purchased mine from http://www.mobileoutlet.com.au/ and was pleased with the service and price

    I have had a XR250 go for two none stop seasons the next one fitted from new a 280 kit and it failed a little end twice

    Bana’s DR destroyed a little end brg in a season

    They are just two examples there are many more

    You see a conrod and its respective brgs, crank, head bolts, head gaskets etc are all designed for work with a set weight reciprocating around the engine creating set stresses throughout the engine. When you increase the loads within the engine you decrease the reliability because of the extra stress within the engine

    Forget all the emotion that this topic will create. I do this stuff for a living the above about extra engine stress for a component not designed for it is fact.

    The gains aren’t that great, practice braking later good suspension good tyres will have a large nett gain on your riding then a big bore kit

    PM me a land line number and a time you can talk and I will share what has happened to me and what I have seen with others

    did you get hold of the guy selling the bigbore kit scotty?

    I wouldn’t do it Scott. And I can give you a long list of reasons why all with example cases. The gains dont out way the benefits. Seen , done it paid for it
