Interphone Bluetooth Helmet Kit

[ghiribizzo]

Found that despite the absolute step-by-step guide from Nick at Motohaus and deleting the pre-existing phone and Interphone info from the Zumo 660, I still had the same issue.

So having contacted Nick again, he's charging up the Zumo 660 they received and is soon to attempt to connect a pair of F3's to it.
My own F3's are being sent to them for testing to see how they compare with theirs.

I can't fault him given that my units did not come via a Motohaus dealer.

Got a package back today from Nick at Motohaus. He agreed that mine didn't work correctly and also noted that the messages from the Zumo 660 were often clipped or distorted when just used with one F3-Zumo.
I'd found mine was ok, but certainly the issue was the lack of intercom + messages from the 660.

So - I now have been sent a brand new pair of F3's from Motohaus. Now that is service, given that the company were not the UK agents when I got mine.
I'll need to charge them up and give them a try out with the GPS.

The firmware sticker on the back of them is R118.

My F4s are with Motohaus now having the upgrade (hopefully being tested with their Z660 too? )

Looking forward to your feedback, I'll post mine when I've got som...

Feedback imminent?

My F4s arrived back this morning (thanks, TD Les )

first impressions: still sport the firmware sticker they had when sent (R111).

On charge for a test later today or tomorrow. Will post results...

Just a pointer again that mine are F3 units - F4 has the bike-bike capability.

Any progress with this as I'm in the market for new a new intercom and thought Bluetooth was the way forward

Mine work as advertised. Have to praise - again - Nick at Motohaus as my F3's were bought before his Company took over the agency.
F3/F4's look (to me) a little neater than the Scala units and I think don't look out of place on the side of an Arai Tour X-3.

F4s rock

having had my F4s firmware upgraded FOC, (via the vendor, Travel Dri Plus, thanks again Les )
I've had time to re-pair with the Zumo and test.

After a day riding around the East Mids solo I can say that the sound quality (MP3 and directions) is spot on.

I have yet to try the bike to bike but that was good before the upgrade.

My only reservation is the either/or nature of the system.

If you're using bike to bike AND Zumo, only the master unit (first paired ?) can here sat nav/MP3 and the cut-in over bike to bike is overlong.
