We've just had delivery of a new bluetooth system - Sena SMH5, it sounds very very similar to the Scala Rider but retails at £90 for a single unit and £170 for a dual kit. Like the Scala Rider, they are very easy to install, fixing directly to the side of the helmet with either a sticky pad or a clamp (the unit can easily be unclipped and removed for charging). Stereo ultra-slim speakers, directional mike and easy to pair up. I had the unit fitted to the helmet and paired to my phone in just a couple of minutes. You can pair it to up to 3 other devices, but I think, like the Scala, you can only talk/listen to one device at a time, which is annoying if you want to hear listen to your satnav and talk to your mate/missus. On the plus side though, the sound quality was superb and the range isn't bad either ~100m in heavy traffic and a stated 500m on the open road with direct line of sight. It's a good quality headset and I'd buy one for myself to connect to my phone, which I would use for music, satnav and incoming calls. But it's not for having a ride out with your mates and chatting with them (unless you only have one mate).

Well, yes, I guess it is a learner friendly route, we're not using any motorways, but there will be national speed limit sections. -

wouldn't be much of a ride just going straight up the M1 now would it -

You will find details on our facebook page if you'd like to join us... The more the merrier

This looks pretty good image quality, though the audio is diabolical due to wind noise mainly I think. I'd be interested in seeing if anyone can come up with a solution to this (other than simply dubbing on some music). I might well have a use for one or two of these camera's and at £18 it seems like a bargain. Might get some as Xmas Prezzies for people too.

MFN - Nottingham. Organise your meetup here!!
Mutiny replied to Korben's topic in Midlands & Lincs ride outs and meets
well, I was there keeping an eye out for the "black helmet with the dragonflies", but have you any idea how many black helmets there are there I parked the RSV4 up, had a drink, had a burger, had a chat, then buggered off as soon as the sun disappeared. -

Rid it of the demons that possess it // I'm usually pretty good at typing, so enjoy it, it won't happen often -

oh and don't worry about what gear you're in, I never know what gear I'm in and always end up trying for another gear even when I'm in top. Stick with it though, once you've got the clutch/throttle control the gears are a piece of cake /mMMmmm Cake
