Finally got the chance to try out this motorcycle bike rack I got last year. Worked like a charm, couldn't even tell it was there honestly. A bit more crosswind on bridges but nothing more than a pillion would give.

It admittedly looks ridiculous, but that's kinda half the fun. Definitely got some looks going down the road.

Need to find a way to store the motorcycle helmet at the destination though since it takes the place of a top box.

That's pretty slick! Do you mind sharing the rack link? I kinda want to put a bike rack on my bike...

Look crazy lol, I love it!
Are you using wired earbuds/mic with the radio or is there a way to use it wirelessly? I have one like it and it would make a great alternative to Bluetooth intercoms.

Right now just used a wired earbud/mid under the helmet.

Looking at the AnyTone AT-D878UVII PLUS which has bluetooth, so may work to connect to the Cardo. If I wind up grabbing it I'll give an update.

I use the radio mostly for motoreffing bike races, so the low speeds mean fiddling with the HT isn't too bad and you can still hear the radio.
