    Owned and used both. Sena is hands down the best. Much easier to operate and longer battery life. You get what you pay for.
    Penny and Rick have owned many motorcycles starting in 1974 with Honda’s, then to Suzukis, Gold Wings and ultimately Spyders.

    I have owned both brands also. I currently own and prefer the Sena units. I find clearer reception on the Sena units. Also like the fact that once on, the Sena units stay on without having to speak when opening the channel.

    Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.

    Previously : 2008 GS-SM5 (silver), 2009 RS-SE5 (red), 2010 RT-S Premier Editon #474 (black) 2011 RT A&C SE5 (magnesium) 2014 RTS-SE6 (yellow)

    MY FINAL TALLY: 7 Spyders, 15 years, 205,500 miles

    IT HAS BEEN A LONG, WONDERFUL, AND FUN RIDE.

    Default A DumbQuestion?

    Can a person with a Scala Rider system talk with a person with a Sena system, or are they incompatable?

    Uclear. The new HBC200's are wonderful. No mic boom in the face.

    Default Compatibility

    I have the same question as TexasSpyder.

    Can a person with a Scala Rider G9X system talk with a person with a Sena SMH10 system over intercom or are they totally incompatible.

    Thanks,

    I think the answer right now is no. Each company has it's own bluetooth protocol. The Sena 20S that is to be released soon is advertised to have that capability. Many Sena SMH10 users are predicting that it will have that capability as well with a firmware update but I don't think Sena has announced that yet and from what I read it may not be a simple as that.
    Unless you have an immediate need, I would wait for Sena to release the new 20S. I know Motorcycle Dave is taking pre orders for those now.

    Bluetooth only has a 30 ft range.
    I don't think that these headsets are using Bluetooth for intercom when talking to another rider 500 feet away.
    I may be wrong, please let me know if i am.

    I bought the Scala G9 because I was going on a trip and everyone I was riding with had Scala's. I agree with you I love it when it works but I too am on my 3rd and my husband is on his second. We bought ours at Cycle Gear and they exchanged them for us every time.
