Yea, I bought a set of the Senas last week and installed them in my and my GF's helmets. Not really impressed after coming from the top of the line J&M headphones, sound quality-wise but we'll see once we road test them.

Nick, I'm surprised that the unit knows the difference between your GPS and your phone... BTW why don't you just use your phone for all three? j/k:lol:

I have a similar problem, as I have a GPS, radar detector and phone. I don't trust BT with radar alerts so I have mine wired to the headset 3.5mm with a splitter that puts the GPS on the left and the radar on the right.:idk: I can listen to music off the GPS in mono if I really want...:lol:

My GPS can access my phone and I can dial and access my phonebook through it while I am riding because it's glove friendly and waterproof. I like the routing on the garmin as I can setup my routes a lot easier and I don't need cell service or take up any unnecessary memory usage on my cell, which is important because I ride where there is little or no cell service of any network.

so you connect your phone to the Garmin then the Garmin to the Sena?

I like the fact the I can use the Garmin to access my phone book. I also like that the Garmin allows me to play my books on tape and keeps track of my place no matter what.

Yep, the only issue with doing it that way is my use of the GPS as my main device overrides anything else trying to access the sena. So if someone tries to talk to me, I won't know it because GPS has priority built into the Sena. As long as audio is coming from the GPS, the Sena plays it over anything else.

Read the manual, anything connected to it is prioritized based on what it is. It knows what you connect to it.

It rules for solo trips. The only time I really used it where it was an issue is trips with andrea, but she just taps me on the shoulder when she wants to talk.

When Kyle used her set on the BRP trip, we just kept it on talk mode the entire way. The conversation was hilarious. "Pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay pret-tay girls..."

The batteries didn't die quick. It lasted a full day and half of the second day. The problem was we were camping. We couldn't recharge them at night, so I recharged one in the morning, while he used the other one and then we changed when it was recharged and I recharged the second one. He didn't have a powerlet on his bike or we could of just recharged both while we were riding.
