Talking about intercomms is like talking about oils or tyres.

There isnt exactly a best system, its what works for you. Do you want wired... see Dale.

Bluetooth, the Sena SMH10 works well. when paired with the SR10 wired to a UHF, Music phone etc. down side, need to recharge

 :beer Thanks fella's  :-[

As Brock says "Talking about intercomms is like talking about oils or tyres"

Firstly work out just how amny voices you want added to your head  :think1
Then how often you are on the bike AND for how long, this helps sort out whether wired or wireless will be best IN YOUR SITUATION  :thumb

Then we can sort oput the best solution for YOU, give us a ring when you need to.

Oh and one minor adjustment to Streaks post, I'm an Electronics Engineer  :grin not Electrical 
I may ride a Ducati, but I've rode lots of (other peoples :-) ) ST's

What I do www.DMME.com.au and www.StarCom1.com.au

Maybe Brock, but an Electrical Engineer has a different skill set to an Electronics Engineer or Civil Engineer or Mechanical Engineer.

If you're interested Sabie, I brought mine online from...........hd-cameras.com.au...........they're located in Melbourne!
I could't fault their service, it arrived in the mail within 3 days of ordering it. I've purchased other items from them as well and also received them 3 days later! :grin

Where did you get your Sena from Gary?
There are many paths to the top of the mountain.....but we all need to find our own way!
