Sena Low Profile Motorcycle Bluetooth Headset and Intercom
I am a pretty hard core biker. I ride a sport
bike but I commute on it and I do long weekend rides with friends in
addition to having fun on twisty roads. This headset is a fantastic
addition, making all of my rides and miles more enjoyable.
Installation was very easy. I used the sticky-backed velcro they supply for attaching both the operating unit and the battery. Running the wires through my Arai helmet was easy, even though the helmet is a bit older ('02 RX7RR) and clearly was not made for wiring. In other words, installation is simple and you don't need a special helmet. Probably took me 15 minutes or so, and I was taking my time. You mount the control unit on the left side and the battery pack on the back. You velcro the speakers in the voids in the helmet next to your ears and you velcro the mic just in front of your mouth. Then you connect the wires, each of which has a unique connector. There is no place you can screw it up and connecting/hiding the wires takes one minute. Most of my time was spent finding just the right spot for the speakers by my ears. It's easy and anyone can do it.
I have an iPhone, which integrates simply via bluetooth. It took 30 seconds to pair with my phone and follows the same process as pairing anything else to the phone. Now for the amazing: I can get GPS instructions and listen to music, while taking phone calls if needed. Frankly, w/o the phone calls I'd still be thrilled. I have a mount on my bike for the phone, but I don't love looking down at it to interpret the maps while I'm riding. Thus, having the voice guidance coming straight to my ears is great. When I'm going over 60mph it can be a bit tough to hear the instructions due to wind noise. In the city, very easy. And that's not for lack of volume.Read more
