Harrywr65 Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Hello guys, im looking around for a Bluetooth headset, as I'm sick of having to use a pair of iPhone headphones!, I'm really confused as to what one to go for? Does anyone own one and can point me in the right direction? I don't want to be spending loads but would rather pay a little extra for a decent set! Thanks in advance guys!

slice Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Hi Harry, I have a Viper helmet, flip front and Bluetooth, works really well for me and quite cheap if you think £150 is cheap of course, on my second one now, wife bought me a new one at Christmas, other one is sitting in the cupboard upstairs. If you want my old one your more than welcome, nothing wrong with it no scratches and never been dropped, had it for 2 years but only wore it in the summer (yeah I know !!) In silver and has 2 very small holes drilled into the outer cover NOT the helmet to mount my camera. Oh yeah the size XL or 62cm if that helps, got a big head (urk!) been told that before not funny anymore ok? Otherwise I would suggest that you go try one, I find it really fits well. This one RSV131 I think, my new one is the RSV151.RSV151 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarke Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Ride reviewed a load in the May edition. Their Best Buy was Interphone F5MC @ £199 (single)/ £339 (pair) They also recommended: Intaride D8 @ £138 / £269 and Interphone F3MC @ £110 / £180 I have a Scala G4 which I've had for about 8 years and would recommend (last time I looked the G9 was the latest so they might be reasonably priced) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for the very kind offer though! There's so many Bluetooth kits about but I've always heard the Scala stuff is the best. Only problem is there are so many different ones it's a pain to figure out what one suits me best! Think I'm going to go with the Q1? Looks fairly decent for the money! 13 hours ago, clarke said: Ride reviewed a load in the May edition.

finnerz89 Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 My lid has spaces in the lining for the speakers but I know what you mean Sent from my E6553 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meatloaf Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I use a Sena SMH10 which I've had for 5 or 6 years, the speakers fit into spaces in my lid, works well with my sat nav, phone and blue tooth mp3 player although I've not tried talking to other bike riders. The only trouble I had was when I drove past a shopping mall and picked up 2 security guards talking to each other and it was so loud it nearly blew my brains out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom1878 Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 SMH10 is bang on. And the voice control actually works well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBH I cant remember how much I paid but I think it was more than that but it was quite new at the time, £130 sounds like a fair price. I did try some cheaper ones but they were all crap and got sent straight back, never regretted paying the extra for SMH10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottiedee Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I use the sena 20s. Definitely on the high end at $200 USD, but you get what you pay for. Works great.
