We purchased a comm system in Spring 2019. Wanted voice commands because messing with buttons on the helmet while riding is not something I want to do; also easier for my spouse to deal with. The UClear was my initial choice, but after learning that the motion sensor was only on the top end device, and questioning the unique mic system, we went with the Freecom 4+ and have been very happy. Even riding with earplugs and modular helmets, it is plenty loud, and the sound quality is great. Thanks for another fun and informative review!

Awesome video as always. Got a vnet in june, the volume is basically impossible to adjust while riding, and the power-off button is right next to the volume up button and DOESN'T require a long-time press. 50% chance of shutting it off. I found it to be quite loud without earplugs, though with earplugs it might be a little too quiet depending on the type of music or your partner's voice. Also, the intercom only works for two people at a time, you have to switch between "channels"... So basically, it's a 2-person intercom. However, for 115 CAD for a dual pack, it's still worth it imo. Plus you can share it your second unit with whoever it is your riding. If range becomes an issue (never was for me), you can always make a phone call. Sound is great even without a full-face or windshield (riding buddy rides a sportster and wears a Bell Rogue.

I must apologise to my Interphone Sport comms system. I thought it was rubbish, until Ryan rolled this video. It cost me £125 three years ago. A year ago I had to replace the mic boom as I have a dual sport helmet (25000miles covered!). Up to 60 miles an hour, with the face open on the helmet, I can be on a phone call or chatting with my pillion without any hint on the other side that I'm being blasted in the face by wind, whilst riding my bike. I don't know how good the noise cancellation is above 60mph as that is the limit of me being able to hear people talking to me. My Comms are easy to pair with up to another three mates, but they're all Philistines and refuse to modernise. My Comms also have a built in FM radio, that I use when I'm on the motorway, either on the UK or abroad.

Below that speed the people on the other end didn't even know I was riding. Only ever used it in paired comms with a buddy a few times, but it synchronized in just a few seconds to his older SMH5 and got a few hundred metres of range which was nice.

Cant speak for the other brands, but RyanF9 has never contacted us once to check facts, and he gets several statements plain wrong while also managing to omit key points. Why, because of sales margin. Cardo and Sena give him the highest dealer sales margin so you get pushed by a salesman who admittedly edits together very good videos. If he at least was accurate, or did fact checking, we could respect his opinion. You are being lead based on an internet dealer's pocketbook... a dealer who will soon be shut off from the brand. Cardo and Sena make very good products, no disputing that, but to say UCLEAR is (1:49) "less reputable" or (11:27) "you should avoid it" is bogus. Saying we have the USAFE "motion chip" in the Motion 6, but we lock the feature off unless you pay more (5:53) is also a simply untrue, false, BS assumption. How he got intercom disconnected at (3:34) 270M is suspect, considering we routinely ride connected well beyond double that distance and check with laser range finders. UCLEAR sales grew by large double digits last couple years for a reason, much of this from happy repeat customers. We are continuing to innovate, improve, provide more features for the price, and to take care of any issues our customers experience. Thousands of happy customers, just not according to RyanF9. We're different on purpose, we're proud of what we do, and we love our loyal customers. If you hate the brand that much, RF9, stop selling it, because we're not about to raise your margins.

It’s no secret that Cardo beats everyone, and that Sena is also well liked.. this is not new…there are thousands of unbiased reviews by everyday riders with no brand affiliation. Also Uclear is also sold on FortNine.. which means there’s obviously profit to be made by your sales as well.

That’s great for Sena that they’re succeeding so well at your specific location. I was speaking for overall. Cardo is better received by the general public. I also did state in my original message that Sena was also well received. (And up until a couple years ago better received) As for UClear, obviously they have to do something right or they wouldn’t be on the market and I’m glad to hear you had success with your unit. But it’s also no lie that’s not a shared feeling among ~50% of their customers… just a quick, google/amazon/youtube review search will show you just how split the feeling really is. Which is why it’s up to each customer to do their research before purchasing to decide what unit is best suited to them. People like different things that great, that’s what makes people interesting! That being said my only issue with UClear is this comment. ** Was this comment they have since changed it ** From a business standpoint this comment was inappropriate.. to leave a comment being rude and insulting to a what 25 year old doing his job?

My personal hack for communication is the Sony C200 Bluetooth headphones. They are small enough to fit in your ears and have none of that annoying ANC. They are wired bluetooth, which means that you can put the remote control unit, which has the mic on it, at the front of your helmet and you can even whisper while riding and the voice clarity is hard to beat. I use an AGV K3 SV with a small chin guard at the front and I simply let the remote sit there. If I receive a call or want to play music I just lift the visor a bit and click the button and the voice assistance does the rest. This solution cost me 15 Euro and I cannot be happier 👏

Sweet, I use my ham radio (Yaesu VX-6R) with my hand mic clipped to my collar, only downside is if I'm moving with any speed there is too much wind noise. I wonder if putting a sock over it would help? It's modified to work on FRS (Family Radio Service) frequencies (that would be the ones that Motorola and other "bubble pack" walkie talkies you'd buy at walmart or wherever work on) Difference is that I get to use 5 watts out of a huge antenna which means I can talk much more reliably than a stock FRS radio which is limited by a little antenna and only half a watt, but, those still should have plenty of range for a motorcycle group. Bonus of the ham radio is it can also be used to communicate with other hams possibly through repeaters so it can also be useful if I ever need to get ahold of someone in the bush as a bonus I have a long roll up j-pole antenna that I can string up in a tree for even better range.

I use a Cardo Freecom 4, sound quality is excellent. Even with ear plugs and riding at 60+mph in heavy wind, I could hear my music perfectly.
@zenrider_96224 жыл бұрын
Had the Sena 20s and now I use the Sena 50s. Works for 8 hours and has a standby life of 16, 1-2 hours charge time. As long as you have clear line of sight to other riders the sound quality was great and it stayed connected. 70+mph and wind noise is too much for talking but is fine with music or radio. Only complaint is that if you don't put speakers in your helmet correctly it does hurt your ears after 2 hours of riding.

@thomaswarren26994 жыл бұрын
If you want good audio for music, you really need some in-ear goodies. You'll never EVER get good audio quality from in-helmet speakers so long as they're competing with wind noise. I own a pair of Shure SE215's and the sound quality for the road is unparalleled. Well, actually, the only earphones better than Shure SE215's for motorcycle use are the higher-end Shure SE series. They have memory foam tips so they block out just as much sound as dedicated ear plugs, and if you buy the optional in-line microphone, then practicality is on-par with ANY of the aforementioned products. The 215's are a little lacking in low-end ooomph, but if you fork out a bit more and get one of the better SE series then you'll be laughing all the way to timbucktoo and back. Ride safe.
