Bluetooth com for motorcycle helmets

[fxdc]

Got my Gal a Sena 1/2 helmet for Christmas, it's all wireless .

Now I need to see if anybody here has added a sena unit to their helmet and what they think of the unit.

Hope you can help me decide which one to get..... I bounce between my 1/2 helmets and a full face below 40 degs.
I may be open to getting a 3/4 retro also

Thanks for the help.

I really like my sena 20s.

If it's just for the intercom feature. You could save money on one of their 10 series units.

But I ride solo almost exclusively, (Dont make friends quickly) and i like the extra features the 20s has.

I am interested in this also.
I wear a 3/4 helmet. I went for a long solo ride last year and wanted music. I tried to find a reasonable price of bluetooth headphones because earbuds eventually work their way out of my ears.
I dont need phone services or to be able to talk to anyone when riding. Just music but everything on the market that is geared for motorcyclists are set up so you can make phone calls.

20S. All the way. I use mine offroad, freeway, mixed, various bikes, have put various base mounts on three helmets. Used it in 6 countries so far. Stay on top of the updates and you're golden--that's my only complaint: that they can be finicky to interface with the computer. Keep the original 90-degree microUSB cable and plug it directly into the USB port (no hubs) and turn off bluetooth on the computer and follow the instructions. Other than that...best coms, multitasking, UI, clarity, battery life, and consistency I've encountered in a ton of riding and using BT coms.

I have a 20s, works great.

Another vote for the 20s. Have one in my full-faced Shoei and it works great. Mainly got it for music as most of my riding to this point has been solo, but I've taken a few work calls when I've ducked out for a ride during the day, too. Nobody I talked with knew what I was up to, other than that I was on my cell phone.

I'm actually thinking about getting one of the new 30K units but am waiting for more reviews...

Especially since there is nothing wrong with my 20S.

Thanks guys.
I was leaning towards the 10s.
Now the 20 might be a option.

I currently use U Clear speakers in my helmets plugged into my I pod.

Do it. Like I said, my only complaint. Moto stuff, for whatever reason, is completely reliant on outdated versions of Windows. I have three old laptops to run three different programs for one bike.

LOL

Odd, I'm on the latest and greatest version of Win10 at the moment and haven't had a lick of problems with the Sena software on it. Granted, that's just the Sena software and I don't have any other moto-related programs on my computer (my GPS apps are on my phone).
