• 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.

Different Music for Driver and Passenger

Currently we ride 2 wheels and have Sena Bluetooth setups for each of our iPhones and I use a portable CB to communicate with the rest of the group via Sena SR10.

We are in the market for a trike and leaning to the RTs. Our communication needs are: CB, am/fm, iPhone connection for both phones AND listening to different music. This is a requirement for our long trips.

I know that the Can Am CB requires wired setup so: Can the RT, using wired headsets, be set up to listen to all this plus perhaps Driver listening to am/fm while passenger listens to her iPhone/iPod music?

All I can say is that I've never heard of this being done. I've been on this forum since I think it was November, 2009. Perhaps she could just listen to her ipod via her own head setup while you're listening to the music provided via the spyder. Interesting question though.

No. It can't. You can only have one at a time. Passenger has it's own controls but only for volume and channel selection.
 
Is her source of music set up for Bluetooth?
You MIGHT be able to pair the different helmets up to different output sources... :dontknow:
(We only use our Scalariders as intercoms; I use our RTs radio speakers for my noise, and she plugs her MP3 player into hers for her own favorite music...)
 
I use $49 BT500 helmet sets from ebay and they are paired to our own phones. I listen to what I want from mine and she hers. Intercom overrides the music as well as Google maps GPS and incoming calls does the same. I never use the bikes radio any more and it sounds great.
 
Sena 20S

I personally am awaiting the Sena 20S to debut (Projected Apr shipping date). The headset will do what you are looking for as well as allow you to intercom with other brand communication systems...which is a plus for me, since I ryde with groups of 20-30 bikes each weekend. I want this particular headset so much that I am going without any communication system at all for the moment, until the 20S is ready to ship in a couple/few more months.

[h=3]Audio MultitaskingTM
One key feature new for the 20S is the audio multitasking feature. The audio multitasking feature allows the audio alternate between music, intercom, FM radio, and phone and seamlessly intermix and overlap for incoming and outgoing audio. The audio multitasking is a new feature that replaces the previous interruption based audio functions of past Bluetooth communication devices. The new audio multitasking function creates the most close-to-natural audio sound while running multiple audio functions simultaneously and intelligently. [/h][h=3]Features[/h]

this was originally expected in Dec 13. Didn't happen. Hopeful it will happen. Bluetooth with the Can Am cb is out of the question at this point. Sena Support says, "We, along with other companies, are investigating......"

Thus my question was concerning hard wired. IF the CB is available on the 2014 RT platform I will just have the wife live with her Sena and tap me on the shoulder to talk. Old school intercom. :D

Thanks for the replys.
