    Default Radio for the F3

    Will anyone get a radio installed on their new F3? If so, what would the recommendations be regarding having one put on and any pictures if possible.

    When I looked at pricing one out they didn't have one for it. You would have to buy an aftermarket one and put it on yourself.

    I have checked out Shark Radio Systems and they look quiet good. Was wondering if anyone will be putting one on their new F3. There is a Company in Quebec that is in the process of making a complete Fairing with a Radio for the F3. Concept I believe is the name of the Company. I am very anxious to see what it will look like and hope it does not remove the good looks of the bike,

    Default Sure..!!

    at the moment it would be a diy project. I'm sure wheels are turning and once they are in the publics hands some great ideas will develop. All in all too soon to have pictures. Mines built into my helmet..Scala G9...

    In helmet audio is the way to go..

    IMO
    • it's way better sounding
    • its way cheaper
    • It has the added bonus of communication for telephone and/or passenger and/or other riders in a group

    Personally, I've never had to turn mine to max to hear it. Even on the freeway.

    We all take risks. It's really about how we weigh the risks.
