bike to bike intercoms

[tiggerbiker]

for a long time now Autocom was regarded as the finest bike to bike you could buy, well that has all changed now - for half the price you can now buy a bit of kit that is twice as good, its called starcom1 (see ad in MCN for contact details) i have been using autocom for years and its good but i have just been out and bought a starcom set and it is absolutly ace - the only quibble is that the batteries dont last long, you do need to have the (supplied) 12v input wire fitted from your bikes battery.

bumpage on a 5 year old thread!!!

im after a bike to bike intercom, anyone got any suggestions? it will only be used for occasion bike to bike so i dont need a autocom/starcom

what normal radio gear would you recommend?

[tiggerbiker]

all the cheap stuff is virtually unusable above about 40mph
you need noise cancelling stuff, you cant get away from it m8 - you want to hear and be heard its got to be autocom, starcom or intaride

[biggy7]

yeh i was afraid you would say that!

have been looking at the intaride stuff aswell, looks good

what is the cheapest module (out of the 3) i can buy for bike to bike?

[tiggerbiker]

i bought the top of the line jobby and went back to my old pro-7 unit.

have a look on ebay m8

oh, and i bought some chinese kenwood radios (99% sure they are fake but work 100%) here all 3 came through with no import duty to pay.
