Customer Reviews:
- Great product!: I ordered 2 sets as my husband and I both ride. One worked but the other didnt so I had to send it back for a replacement. Amazon made the return and replacement process very quick and painless. They sent me a new one immediately. The radios work great and can be moved from one helmet to another with no problem. I highly recommend this product.
- Just OK: It's good but not rugged enough. The external ptt button just doesn't work and it's difficult to listen to music when you travel with a passenger in the intercom mode.
They are just ok for the price, but I was expecting a lot more. - good buy: These units have a few problems but work well for the money. The units come with an external ptt button you can mount on your handlebars I had the units replaced once and the external ptt button did not work on all 4 units. It is pretty simple to reach down and hit the ptt button on the unit clipped to your belt. The units do have vox but it is slow to react so it is easier to use the ptt button. The units work both bike to bike and as an intercom, however they do not work very well as both at the same time. When 2 headsets are hooked to the same unit the headsets are in constant communication therefor the wind and engine noise is heard constantly making it difficult to hear if someone from another unit is trying to talk.
I would recommend these units to anyone, I think the problems are minor and for the price they work very well.
- Not easy but it works: This is a great alternative to the expensive motorcycle radio units you find at the parts stores. The intercom is clear, just like talking on the phone. The bike to bike radio picks up a bit of road noise but a little experimenting with MIC placement will help reduce it to a tollerable level. Range is a tricky subject. Nady claims 7 miles. Straight line distance with absolutely nothing in betweeen two radios on a clear day while both radios are held at arms length above your head....... hopefully you get my drift. Real life range is probably closer to 2 miles in most common terrains. Which is fine for motorcycle riding together. Plus you can have as many riders as you want on the same coded channel able to talk to each other. Warning! Read the instructions many times. Untill you get used to it, this unit can be difficult and frustrating to use. Don't give up. Play Satation took some time to learn too. This unit is well worth the money. P.S. You can even plug your IPOD into it to listen while you ride.
- Nandy MRC-11X22 Channel Bike to Bike Communicator/Headset: For a basic communication device, I feel the radio has too many function buttons. Radio works well using push-to-talk button. The supplied headset is for an open-face helmet. There is no option for a closed-face helmet headset with the initial purchase. You will need to order one separatly. With the helmet and headset I have, hearing at speed above 45mph is a problem due to wind noise. As for factory support, the question I emailed two weeks ago about the headset is still to be answered. Ride Smart.
