I have been using this for about 2 years and its still going strong, never connected to other headsets but connected to my phone its brilliant. Callers have no idea I am riding while on a call. I bought extra speakers, mic and mounts to put in my other helmets. Battery life is good I charge mine maybe once a week with approx 2-4 hours use a day

We've been using them for over a year now and they have been great, no need to pay £££ for the well known brands, i cant justify that.

Thanks for the video. Installed mine last night. Easy to follow your video, easy installation. Haven't tried it while riding yet because of the rain but loud as shit as far as 1st test goes. I'm pretty sure it'll do fine on the road. I ride a gsxr, closed face helmet.

@jordanblair5410 Жыл бұрын

Thanks for the nice review mate! What is the connector style for the ear speakers into the module? If I go with the FX6, I plan to use a passive (wired) ear phone set with integrated mic. This should provide wind noise reduction to my ears combined with decent music sound quality piped directly to the ear canal.

So I like to listen to Pop, rap, R&B style music, I don't expect deep base but I definitely would like an exceptional sound on the speakers that's clear and not sound like a cheap small tiny radio that's close to your ears. Can you describe the quality of the speakers? for example, it's clear or not clear with regarding Mids, Low (base) High's as in Trebble? Thanks love the vids

The fodsports m1-s Pro is the best one, I'm currently using one and it's spot on, the quality is amazing and very bassey, I will be posting a video soon with a full review and install. You an go to fodsports.com and use Nick12 code for 12 percent off. You won't be disappointed

Hi Nick, My two bike buddies and I bought three FX6's a couple of months ago and when we can get them working they are really good. However we are having problems in that when we get together for a ride out we spend ages trying to pair up. Its been very frustrating in fact each time we try so many different things we don't know what the hell we have done! Yesterday we could only get two working! After pairing should all three units pair automatically every subsequent ride? I've tried asking Fodsports to no avail a couple of times. The FX6's were purchased from Amazon about two months ago. We Know it is probably us so any help would be appreciated. thanks and thanks for a great vid'

@nicksepisode Жыл бұрын

If you have any issues long press the off button and it will do a factory reset, do this for all 3. Pair the first two while the 3rd is off. Then pair the 3rd to the 2 first intercoms. What ever pairs first will always be the dominant one. So when you go for a ride turn yours on first then ur mates, don't try and pair them again just one press on the top button and it will connect automatically. It's also important to turn off your phones Bluetooth because sometimes that can interfere with it. They are good for the price once you learn how to connect them each time, all beit a faff each time but better than paying 350 for high end ones I think.
