• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Cheap Communication

Questions

New member
Does anyone know of any inexpensive communication systems for driver and passenger both wearing a full face helmet? It would make the rides more enjoyable if I could talk to my wife just a few inches from me. Any product links and testimonials would be much appreciated.

I have midland bt2 setup, normally expensive, found new on amazon.com for about $150 or so. It came with 2 set ups. You could also buy those really small bluetooth headsets and just use your phones. :thumbup:
 
How cheap? :D

I have 2 Cobra walkie talkie and an ear bud for each. Range is 16 mile so driver to passenger or to a pair of bikes should be fine. Only cost $45.00 at Wallyworld. I'm bringing them to Cuba Spyderfest!
 
I have bought from this several times in the last couple of years. It is mostly imported stuff. Been using the 1000M blue tooth headsets for a year with good results and recently bought the 6 rider system which did pair with my old sets. The sound quality of bluetooth phone and Music from the phone is great. I like the intercom feature as well however never did master getting the music to play with the intercom override when we speak.

One smack on the back of your helmet means "SLOW DOWN!"
Two smacks means "Find me a bathroom."
Her helmet hitting the back of your helmet means "I think I'll take a nap."
Communication without any cost! :2thumbs:
 
I'm gonna wait 'till the Sena, Interphone F4 and the Scala Q4 can all talk to each other. ..... Which probably means I will never have one ..:gaah:
 
Thank for replying.

Here's a link to a decent system. $130. I don't think you mentioned a price range.


Why pay $200 when I can get one for $100 (only if it's a comparable product). I am looking for a communications set up that is affordable yet is functional and is somewhat durable. Let's say one item is $100 and the other item is $135, and someone tells me the $100 unit is totally junk I will (of Course) purchase the unit that is priced higher. That being said I am just looking for basic communication with my wife sitting behind me, with us both wearing full face helmets.
Thanks Spyder Friend.
Long Live the Republic!

I'll just say this...you get what you pay for. Hopefully you can try before you buy. The wind noise can be louder than the voice on the cheaper systems. The noise-canceling features and the volume increase with speed, found on more expensive systems, as well as better electrical interference protection, make the better systems less frustrating and less difficult to use.
