I am interested in the starcom set up for bike to bike .I would appreciate any pics and recent comments about the system itself. Thanks.
Try one of these from Busters £9.99 and cut down alot of wind noise, does make misting a problem but treating the visor will stop this.GSwadd said:I have a Starcom on my GS12 and it just sits under the toolkit with the leads coming up behind the riders seat and poking out between the two. Easy to connect and disconnect for both. Power leads go direct to battery as it only turns on once the riders connector is plugged in. Only problem I have is bad wind noise coming through from the missus's helmet on the back. Anyone else suffer this? Think it is just the helmet shape as it is very open at the front for a fullface and she is obviously sitting in more direct wind being higher at the back. Was thinking of building a small airdam from foam to add to the bottom to stop the wind. She has no problem as my BMW helmet is very closed in around the neck and chin.
ChasMill said:I fitted a Starcom Advance (NEC purchase) a couple of weeks ago for Sat Nav, phone ipod etc. My only complaint is the length of the cables supplied. Mine is fitted to the back of the fuel tank above the battery and I have the bulkhead fixing kit attached to one of the frame rails on the left of the bike. The cables are long enough to reach front to back of the bike and as such once fitted the handfull of spare cable has to be stuffed underneath the tool kit tray.
I think I will ask Santa for a 2 way radio - any suggestions welcome.
