N44 WITH B5

Ron, have you had any problems with the ncom b5 Bluetooth ? My wife and I both have the N44 With the ncom B-5 but the Bluetooth streaming is always skipping...I've looked on line, everyone blames the other guy, my phone works great on all my other bt things but my helmet. Also whenever we connect the intercom, one of us always has a little echo, usually me. Any ideas ?

If you are bald, or very short hair, always use a helmet liner, even if not, it is a good idea.

Even so, you will eventually need to clean your helmet liner. Decent helmets have removable liners. I like to use Woolite in the sink. Soak it in medium hot water and agitate by squeezing repeatedly. Let sit half and hour and rinse in warm water. Let dry overnight, or until dry.

Never leave a damp or sweaty helmet in a side or top case that is sealed. Just a few days is all you need to end up with mold and a ruined helmet.

Ironically I am doing it as I type.

I hand wash ours with shampoo and then put them on the shelf in the dryer on air only or on a warm, sunny day...dry in the sun.

...... Think about it. Most of the oils are from your hair so it seems logical to use hair shampoo. Gives it a nice fresh smell also.

But being your shampoo, does it add shine, body, & bounce to the liner too?? :shocked:

I got extra set of pads an liner. When I hand wash them, I soak them over night in dishwashing Dawn. Oil and sweet just float to the top. Hand scrub them a bit then rinse untill water is clear. Sun dry. Thats all folks!:cheers:

I agree with what Bob D posted. That is how I do my liner. The only other thing I would add is that for soap I use my regular shampoo. Think about it. Most of the oils are from your hair so it seems logical to use hair shampoo. Gives it a nice fresh smell also.

So I guess I have to use body wash since I shave my head????

Hand wash only....air dry only. If you really work on the pads by massaging, squeezing or twisting, expect the pad to fit slightly different initially upon reinstallation. Almost having to stretch or retrain the fitment. At least that's what I experienced with my Shoei RF-1100. My darn cheek pad seemed to get a little squirrely and hard to put back in. Any way, good luck.

Real tough decision. Use your best judgement.

Monday I'm going to take a class in self assertiveness, if my wife will let me.

I used to think I was indecisive,but now I am not so sure.
