Com set advice

I agree! I get some pure air sound quality without my beloved motor mouth!
 
I too have the SENA 20S. They've had some growing pains. The good news is three firmware versions later, they are MUCH more reliable for pairing . . . with each other -- should have been a snap from the git go. I haven't had much reason to pair with other bikes until this year, and now I'm interested in watching the YouTube videos that explain how to do it. I did read a review of the 20S where they claimed they were able to pair with a bunch of different devices . . . by the hardest -- tricky with each one requiring fiddling and so on. Still in the geek realm I'm afraid -- and while I was one when I was twenty, somehow it just doesn't seem to work as easily now.

Thank goodness (!) for the Rocket captains who still show us how.
 
So far I have read a lot of good reviews on the Sena 20S. Has anyone hear experienced this setup?
I bought a pair of the Sena 20's before riding out west with my son specifically for the trip. They exceed my expectations by a lot and made the trip very memorable. Very simple to operate, clear as a bell, like sitting in the same car, It worked seamlessly with my iPhone for music, or to make a phone call. Several times I could just ask Siri a question, like directions, hotels at next exit. I am not a tech geek and I'm 62 and I figured it out in no time. Now it has many, many other features that I didn't use or understand, but that's just to say that it's extremely well thought out to accommodate everything out there, i.e. GPS, GoPro's, 20 riders at a time?( I can't imagine that ) and you can program it with an app of course!
Range might not be what they claim but it was never a problem for us as most of the time we were within a half mile of each other. Once we went different ways out of range, and just called and used the phone through the same system.
Often times now, I will call my son in New York and not realize he's on his bike riding somewhere. It's that clear! BTW I have the Schubert C3Pro helmet and chose not to use their proprietary system based on reviews. And from what I gather, any of the Sena models will give you the same clarity, just different features. One of my best purchases.
 
Thanks, This is the information I am looking for. I have pretty much settled on the 20S now. It seems that every review is two thumbs up. Thanks again.
 
Understandable. I've been flopping back and forth between the 20S and the HBC200 for a couple months...now this...
 
I bought a Sena SMH5 set last year for $200.00.

The wife wanted me "to be able to tell her when I was going to pass someone." (Like she couldn't pick up on the clues?)

I haven't tried to use any of the more advanced functions it offers; but it does work great as a commo, and the batteries last for months between charges.
