Ok...didn't realize I had to add a comment to add text to an image post. Anyway...

Long story short: first time I rode, I slipped and fell and had nasty road rash. The ignition on my scooter was fucked and I was in recovery for about 2 weeks.

Photos of my injuries when they were fresh, click at your own risk:

Here we are weeks after, everything has healed completely except for my shoulder and wrist. I sprained the shit out of it apparently. I bought some gear to keep me protected and this is what I use:

After doing some errands on the scooter today, two things I've realized: riding for a while really takes a toll on your legs, mostly calves and your hands really cramp up after a while (3+ hours). When I had the accident, I was going 20mph and while I was riding today, I realized why I fell. The speed never went down because with the Emove cruiser, if you hold the throttle for a while, it automatically activates cruise control. I figured out you can just turn it off by pressing the throttle twice but still, better late than never. Also I got a little too confident and went to the second mode instead of just staying on the first. I rode today strictly on the first mode and everything went smoothly. My only complaint is how stupid hot it gets where I live and I was drenched in sweat by the end of the day

Edit: I forgot to mention the smaller things I've attached to the scooter

I would strongly recommend finding a helmet you love, and adding this -

http://smile.amazon.com/Sena-SMH10-11-Motorcycle-Bluetooth-Microphone/dp/B0087NB088/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1408630707&sr=8-1&keywords=smh10

Go in on a 2 pack with a buddy and save some dough, plus have a intercom buddy when you ride - http://smile.amazon.com/Sena-SMH10D-10-Motorcycle-Bluetooth-Intercom/dp/B0087NAZM0/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1408631057&sr=8-2&keywords=smh10

The great thing about this is that it can change with your helmet, it also provides a great intercom system (that I've found quite a few folks with), and integrates really well with your smartphone (though, better with iPhone than Android much to my chagrin).

I have a Bell Star Carbon helmet and it comes with pre-cut spaces in the liner to accommodate a speaker setup such as this. There are others I'm sure in a more affordable price range that will do the same depending on what your budget is.

u/R00zel · 6 pointsr/pokemongo

Just got myself this:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00LOA8DNQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1]

US Link: https://www.amazon.com/Vibrelli-Universal-Phone-Mount-Holder/dp/B010OPQVUS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1468182021&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=bike+mount+phone&psc=1

Really great. The clamp is adjustable, comes with two silicone webs (US version comes with 3, count 'em, 3!), allows tilting and swivelling if you want to enable battery saver. Good price too.

I feel like cycling is the way to go. Quick travel between pokestops and gyms (I took 3 this evening!) , because you're on cycle paths or pavement it's much safer to stop, you don't need to look at the phone at all because the sound tells you when pokemon appear, plus it's great exercise! (My app says I burnt over 500 calories today.)

u/Dragoniel · 6 pointsr/bikecommuting

Cool! That's a serious distance! Also, I highly recommend a simple phone mount on your handlebars - you can then use your phone for maps, Strava and even music streaming or chats, if you'd be so inclined, without having to stop all the time.

u/Sqeaky · 6 pointsr/pokemongo

I bought two of these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B010OPQVUS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

One for my cell phone and one for this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017R8VREU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The light on the battery pack was better than the light on my bike so I replaced it.

u/Datasinc · 6 pointsr/phoenix

Ingress player and Pokemon Go Beta tester here:

Want to catch pokemon and not die of the heat? Easy! Get on the lightrail. (Or in Tempe get on a free Orbit shuttle)
It's great for hacking Pokestops and for encountering pokemon in the wild but you won't be able to do gym battles unless you get off the lightrail but that's ok. You want to level up and get some good pokemon for the gym first anyways. You will want to use the gym later though. It's the only way to earn coins in game by "defending" gyms. You can also strengthen a teammates gym by leaving pokemon at it too. C ordinate with your nearby friends and choose the same color if you'll be traveling together or playing in the same area alot.

The higher your level the better Pokemon you will see.

Oh and don't start upgrading your low end pokemon yet. It wastes stardust. As you gain levels you find ones that are maxed out or almost maxed out. Just sell or "transfer" you lowest CP duplicates to get candies for that pokemon.

If you're gonna spend money on the game start with buying a few egg incubators. You only start with one.

You will most likely need an external battery pack as the game sucks up more juice than ingress did by far. There is a battery saver box in the options and you can turn the camera mode off which helps some but still sucks down the juice like crazy.

Got a bike? Makes catching em all easier! Put one of these on it to keep from dropping your phone, wrecking, or both.

WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING.

PUT A CASE ON YOUR PHONE.

BE NICE TO PEOPLE ON PRIVATE PROPERTY. If they ask you to leave, leave. A gym on property doesn't give you the right to be there.

u/tshizdude · 6 pointsr/motorcycles

I use a Sena SMH5 Bluetooth Headset. No messing with headphones, automatically pairs with my phone, very quick and easy to change a track, choose playlists, raise and lower volume, full phone functionality via Siri, intercom, etc. Great product, worth every penny.

u/-Kevin- · 5 pointsr/motorcycles

Do I need a fuse for a USB charger?

https://www.amazon.com/MICTUNING-Adapter-Waterproof-Motorcycle-Cellphone/dp/B01MSK7ZAV/ref=sr_1_17?keywords=motorcycle+usb&qid=1557912571&s=gateway&sr=8-17

Does that...matter? I know what a fuse does, and I realize we're directly hooking a battery to my cell phone. So it seems like it has value, but none of the other products have one. Is it not needed?

u/addy8 · 5 pointsr/MotoUK

I'm using the Abus 8077 and from what I've seen it's one of the strongest disk locks on the market plus it has an alarm. The alarm isn't as loud the the Xena disk locks but I avoided those due to the excessive comments of false alarms, broken alarms and poor customer service from xena.

The abus lock feels seriously solid and it's the perfect size to fit under my seat (yamaha mt-07).

If you also want a high quality chain to carry with you that's not too heavy check out the Pragmasis 13 or 11mm chains.

u/woofwoofdog99 · 5 pointsr/bicycling

Yes. It's this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00OQJ5VPK/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1453007063&sr=8-1&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=tackform+bike&dpPl=1&dpID=41Kq80HRPSL&ref=plSrch

I have a nexus 6p now and it works perfect for it and before I had a nexus 6 which was even bigger and still held up. I love it and its only $10. Have done 50+ mi rides on super rough trails with it and never had problems. You just have to make sure you use the rubber webbing on the 4 corners and the phones not coming off (learned that one the hard way lol)

u/engraverwilliam01 · 4 pointsr/motorcycles

Frankly the Bilt helmets are not all that great on the quality scale. I've had an HJC, Shoei, and now a Bilt full-face w/ bluetooth that I got from a similar sale as yours. By all means, they do the job, and for a bluetooth-integrated helmet it's a great price, but they're definitely cheap. However, I've had mine for about 4 months now with no issues. The way I see it, you can keep on trading until you get a Bilt helmet that works (they do exist), or you can look at alternatives. On cycle gear's website it does look like they still sell HJC, although I haven't seen any in my local store for a good while. HJC helmets are about the same price as your Bilt and from my experience more comfortable and less noisy, but you would have to get a separate bluetooth unit. Here's some ideas for you (assuming they have it in stock at your store, or you can use the credit online):

http://www.cyclegear.com/HJC-IS-Max-2-Solid-Modular-Motorcycle-Helmet - about the same price as your Bilt helmet, sans bluetooth.

http://smile.amazon.com/Sena-SMH5-02-Low-Profile-Motorcycle-Bluetooth/dp/B0087NB1IW/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1462345722&sr=8-2&keywords=helmet+bluetooth - seems like a well-reviewed headset by a reputable brand.

You'll end up spending a little bit more, but then you can ensure that you get a solid helmet, and if the bluetooth doesn't work it's just a matter of exchanging that one part, and if you get it elsewhere you don't have to deal with cycle gear.

u/B_Sack · 3 pointsr/motorcycles

http://www.amazon.com/Sena-SMH10-10-Motorcycle-Bluetooth-Intercom/dp/B0087NAWYQ

Or just get one of these which allows phone calls, phone control, song skipping by voice or even touch by the physical wheel on the helmet peice, always on mode for other units between riders ECT. No need to buy a phone to get an app for song skipping ;)

u/GMretard · 3 pointsr/motorcycles

u/dirtyoldduck has really sound advice. Brakes and transmission for safety, the rest for peace of mind.

I installed this on a bike a few years ago to charge a GPS and was really happy with the results. You could combine it with this and have an affordable total solution.

EDIT: Formatting

u/o0adam0o · 3 pointsr/TheSilphRoad

I ride to work everyday and agree with everything.

u/psypenguiny · 3 pointsr/motorcycles

Hey all! I have a few questions about helmet speakers for music. I have horrible tinnitus and bought that huge bulk thing of foam earpro to wear which helps immensely. But at the same time, I can't wear ear buds. I've tried some of those earpro ear buds but they neither provide enough sound deadening or is loud enough. I've seen some other threads talk about how they can wear earpro and still hear music through their comm systems. I don't need anything fancy, but I need something loud enough to hear through the foam. I don't mind plugging my phone into it, or if it has any sort of comm function. Ive looked at a couple, but I'm just trying to find some other peoples experiences.

Some that I am looking at:

Sena SMH-10

Tork X-Pro Motorcycle helmet speakers

UClear Digital Pulse

u/solitudechirs · 3 pointsr/motorcycles

For taller bars, it looks like your year has regular clip-ons, so you should be able to use any bars that are the diameter of your forks. I did a 4500 mile/10 day trip on my 2014 and never had any wrist issues, just a sore butt.

This is the tank bag I use and I have no complaints. I just keep jamming more stuff in it and it seems like there's always room for one more thing. If you're worried about keeping your tank paint in good condition, wax it before you leave, then make sure you don't have any dirt/debris on the bike or the bag when you put it on. It stays planted pretty well on my 2014 VFR, but on my CBR250R it slides around a lot because of the narrow tank, the magnets don't hold very well. I'm guessing your bike has a bigger tank, so a flatter top surface, so it shouldn't be an issue. Just keep it clean and don't slide it around, lift it up if you want to re-position.

RAM mounts are probably the most popular for mounting the phone on the bars, or else you can put your phone in the tank bag. To charge your phone, you can buy one of these, it plugs into the SAE lead from your batter tender pigtail, and converts it to a USB-C port. From there, just plug in a USB-C -to-your-phone's-port cable.

In-helmet bluetooth - Sena 20S or Cardo Packtalk are top of the line, like $250 but they have the best features and they're pretty much guaranteed to work and have good battery life. This is a cheaper option that will likely work nearly as well as the premium brands. I haven't used any of the above, so I can't attest to their quality, but I've heard the latter is worth the savings, although if you're not worried about money, the Sena is the better option.

Rain gear - I wear these pants and this jacket. They're 3 season, warm weather, with a removable waterproof liner. With the liner in, it's comfortable wearing just a T-shirt underneath in the upper 60s. Upper 70s I'll generally take the liner out. Lower temperatures, I wear a long underwear/thermal base layer that's like $10 Fruit of the Loom stuff that works pretty well. The biggest issue with this stuff is that because it's made for warmer weather, it's breathable, which doesn't work out well in cold weather. Given your schedule, this stuff would be fine for the weather. Another option for rain gear is to just have a cheap one piece plastic oversuit/rain coat type thing. Basically a big plastic bag.

For bike security, if you're worried about it, get a chain and hook up to a post. Also, get a cover for the bike. Someone might see a bike and think it's worth stealing, but if they see a blob, they're probably not going to walk over and lift up the cover to see what's under it. If you really want to be sneaky, throw some mud on the cover and put duct tape patches on it to make it look ratty.

Helpful apps - Google Maps/Apple Maps, and a way to listen to music if you're going to be on the freeway a lot.

Miscellaneous:

  • Earplugs/plugfones,

  • Basic tools (metric wrenches, allen wrenches, whatever you need to adjust your chain tension, multitool such as a Leatherman Surge or Wingman)

  • Something to secure loose parts on your bike if something breaks, whether you prefer zip ties, bailing wire, rope, paracord, velcro, whatever you want, just have something that you can strap stuff down with. I have about a dozen 12" zip ties and a $7 roll of velcro that's like 35 feet long.

  • Tire puncture kit, probably also a tire pressure gauge

  • Waterproof luggage. My personal experience says that hard shell luggage is more convenient for accessing during the day, and a waterproof soft shell bag is good for your stuff you won't need unless you're stopped for the night - clothes, toiletries, maybe a laptop, charging cables, etc.

  • Kickstand pad for that one time you park in the grass and realize your kickstand is sinking in from a 500lb bike leaning on it. You can just use a piece of wood or something for this obviously, it's just nice to have something ready for it so you're not awkwardly standing there with your bike waiting for someone to grab you a rock or chunk of asphalt.

  • Written directions, major road names. Electronics these days are pretty much foolproof, but once in a blue moon, you might find yourself somewhere you don't have GPS service or a data connection for your phone. You'll be hundreds of miles from anywhere you know, it's good to have a fallback plan, and it only takes a few minutes.

  • Make sure you can confidently put the bike on the centerstand. You might not be able to do it with luggage, that's fine, but you should be able to do it with the bike unladen. This makes roadside maintenance or hotel parking lot chain tensioning/lubing way easier.

  • Something to write with and write on. I keep a little notebook and pen in my tank bag.

  • Emergency cash, even if you plan on paying for everything with a credit/debit card

  • Emergency credit/debit card, even if you plan on paying for everything with cash

  • Let your bank or credit card company know what states you'll be in, so your card doesn't get denied for suspected fraud when you need an emergency tow

  • Speaking of emergency tow, AAA or AMA membership with roadside assistance

    Be prepared for every type of weather that can happen in the regions you'll be passing through, even if it normally doesn't happen there in the time of year. I got snowed on in Texas after leaving Wisconsin, of all places, in late April. Have a plan in case your bike breaks down, or your tire blows, or you chain breaks, or anything goes wrong. A lot of people also recommend hydration systems, e.g. Camelbak backpacks with a straw that goes into your helmet. On my road trip, I was basically subsisting on beef jerky, trail mix, and powerade when I stopped for gas. If you're making a more leisurely trip, there's no reason not to eat real food.
u/c0zgrove · 3 pointsr/motorcycles
  • Came across this thread that has some pretty good gear deals for the track.

  • I'm looking for a Sena SMH10, best I've found so far is Amazon for $153. Still looking.

  • Sportbike Track Gear has some pretty good deals going on. If your head is small you can score a carbon fiber Bell Star helmet for $250.

u/LeafyLeith · 3 pointsr/TheSilphRoad

Some people use bike mounts for their phones. It's similar to one you would attach to your dashboard on your car, except it goes in the middle of your handlebars on your bike. Here's an example.

I would be careful if you use one while biking on bumpy terrain though, they can spit your phone right out if you shake 'em around too much.

u/day1patch · 3 pointsr/bikecommuting

Depending on what kind of magnet these things have they could very well be more than tough enough. I go magnet fishing quite a lot and man it's easy to underestimate how much power magnets can have. If you get a good magnet mount I think you should have no problems even with cobblestone roads. Personally I use this strap mount that works perfectly.

u/waywaw · 3 pointsr/Super73

If you are talking s1, this bag large size fits. I got a bell, designed well, small size fits. Phone mount. I'm getting these gravity wheelnutz for the front wheel (M10). I'm getting these water bottle holders, which seem cheap so can't vouch for them, but needed two and didn't yet put in a longer screw through the fender so I lost the universal mount. Highly recommend the suspension. And honestly, my favorite thing is very specifically for my dog. But, I had to take off the front light on my bike so that she could surf on this basket (there is a strap to connect to a harness so they are protected) tail wagged the whole trail. I too am getting the extended seats, because tall, so the rear just holds a bike lock for now. Should take a break after spending all that money, but going on a bike trip next week for vacation, so far, all super worth it. There are great accessory videos on youtube, the community there is small but wonderful.

u/labounty1 · 3 pointsr/bicycling

I've been using this one since 2016:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B010OPQVUS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It works great. I have tried several others - this was one that you can get tight enough the phone won't move around even when riding on mountain bike trails. It gets used several times a week, and still functions like new. It came with a couple of extra bands, but I've never had to replace that part.

Someone else mentioned quad lock, I don't think those were around when I bought this one, otherwise I may have considered it. This is much cheaper, but I see the quad lock also has rain protection which is a big plus.

u/dnorm00 · 3 pointsr/boostedscooters

for those concerned with locking it up outside...a few pro tips:

  1. Use a kryptonite New York U lock. Decent amount of choices in that line...I use this one: extra long heavy duty u lock
  2. For extra protection also use a disc brake lock, the one i use is here: Kryptonite Disc Brake Lock
  3. Strap a loud ass alarm to it. I have this one, and can tell you it will deter someone from trying to mess with the above two heavy duty locks...It's absurdly loud, even by busy NYC street standards: absurdly loud, remote lockable alarm
  4. Lock it in areas with consistent street traffic and doubly confirm the structure you are locking to is firmly in place
u/Slenderloli · 3 pointsr/TheSilphRoad

A phone bike mount will CHANGE YOUR LIFE!

Makes playing ingress a lot more fast paced and fun! I imagine it will make this game fantastic too!

u/XxGas-Cars-SuckxX · 2 pointsr/bikecommuting

this one Had to change the cheap AAAs after 6 months. Very loud.

disk brake alarm Had to open it and resolder a wire after ~8 months. I put it in the rear triangle on the brake. Very loud as well.

heres the GPS tracker. There’s many other options though.

u/_TheHuntsman_ · 2 pointsr/oneplus

Found this one as i was browsing through amazon

u/englad · 2 pointsr/unitedkingdom

the latter yea, I bought this one

Easy to install, have a minor issue with mine where a cable is ometimes resting on my neck, since I didn't take the time to put the wiring in carefully, headphones are of decent quality, and can go too loud (because you still wanna hear traffic!)

I also didn't use the microphone slot, that cable is kind of a pain, it's maybe.. 6" at the isde of my head and just sort of flops about, sometimes I hear like "tick tick tick" from it hitting my helmet at speed

Lots of helmets have headphone places in them now

u/Gwenhwyfawr · 2 pointsr/cycling

This is a really cheap option I tried and its works just fine other then needing to buy a longer screw to attach it to my stem. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B010OPQVUS?psc=1

u/xpurplexamyx · 2 pointsr/MotoUK

Have an Oxford Boss for my bike. It's an over sensitive piece of shit. I would not buy it again. It also has a fully exposed shackle for easier angle grinding.

/u/muriel_bing has an Abus 8077, which is fucking fantastic imo. It's sensitive enough that if you stand the bike up it freaks out royally, but not so sensitive that ghosts disturb it. The shackle is also built into the lock and it looks like it would put up a decent fight against an angle grinder.

That said... I think that disk lock that those chavs in that video cut through with a grinder was an Abus, but I'm not sure.

u/catbat272 · 2 pointsr/cycling

i recently got this vibrelli mount. it fits my iphone 5s in an otterbox case. if i were starting from scratch, i'd probably have gone with the quadlock, but already having a case, this has worked well for me so far and seems to hold the phone pretty securely. (you can double up on the elastic bands for extra security, which seems like overkill on the road but i probably will do it next time i ride some trails). i can't speak for durability since i've only had it a week. if anything on it broke, i'd think it would be the bands, which you get three of.

eta: i got my mount mostly for maps. for music, another option would be a bluetooth speaker, which would also give you better sound quality. you can keep the phone in a pocket or saddle bag. i don't have one, but have been eyeing one that fits in a water-bottle holder.

u/Blue_J0K3R · 2 pointsr/motorcycles

A lot of people use RAM mounts, but I went out and purchased a Roam Mount. Unbelievably reliable, incredibly durable, absolutely sturdy and pretty inexpensive at $16. I've had it for about 4-5 years on a naked bike, which has no fairings (obviously since it's a naked bike) or windscreen. Wether you're cruising at 45 or 85, you'll feel confident in the product. I've rode as fast (and slow) as the next man and have had absolutely zero issues with it becoming loose or anything.

Edit: I've used the Roam mount with an iPhone as well as the larger Galaxy Note 9, so phone size doesn't matter. It'll fit!

I think you are a lucky man that your wife wants to ride with you, it’s not as prevalent, at least in my opinion. Enjoy your time, I recommend you get a headset intercom so you can talk and point things out to each other all the time and that she can tell you when she needs a break. We use the Sena 10 series. There are less expensive options, but these are very well made, battery’s life is excellent and well, recommended.

Don't mess with your hearing. With your current setup, it will go fast. You may also end up with Tinnitus. In the least it can be annoying, at its worst, unbearable. Always wear earplugs. Don't fall for the gimmicky re-usable earplugs that can be extremely expensive. Just buy a jug of the squishy foam earplugs that are pennies each. This video has a good breakdown. If you want to listen to music, get a helmet speaker system. This one is plenty cheap, and works well. Phone calling also works great, both ways.

I've personally seen 3 hoods in broad daylight (about 1PM) stealing a motorbike from that spot. One on either side holding it up, while the third lay on his back on the seat and kicked the fuck out of the handlebars to try and break the steering lock.

If you've got a disc lock, you should be fine parking wherever you like. I've never had any problems with a good visible Kryptonite lock.

I was actually thinking about buying one like rIGHT now. Is it the same as this product?

u/DimmSCL · 2 pointsr/motorcycles

I bought the 10-11 a while ago, so maybe I can help out a bit. I've got an AFX Modular so I went with the 10-11 since it had the stick-on mic and the boom mic included. Installation was a snap, sound quality is good enough to listen to music, and is very clearly listenable at speed (I've had it up to about 80 or so, no issues.) Haven't had any issues with rain in the storms we've had in my area recently. When I have my visor closed, people can't tell I'm on the bike at all (even up to highway + speeds). If you've got any more questions, I'd be happy to help out!

I enjoy it because you can tighten it down and then pull on it and say "nope, that ain't going anywhere". It is like a mini version of transporting the bike on a hitch mount.

I use a samsung galaxy s5 though. If you have one of those small tablets people are calling phones nowadays you may want to go with the RAM.

u/rancemo · 2 pointsr/gadgets

Just get something made for it, unless you're really good at building stuff like this, but then you probably wouldn't need to ask here. I have a Sena SMH5, and love it. No complaints, works very well. The same company makes several models, including the cheaper SMH3 model, but I didn't care for the boom mic on it because I use a full-face helmet.

u/macbooklover91 · 1 pointr/motorcycles

I read that as 30F and I was wondering why that would be your first major ride. Then I did the conversion... sounds like beautiful weather and a beautiful ride.


> Get some form of communication (we relied on taps and gestures, which is pretty crap)

I have the Sena 20S. It's expensive... but completely worth it in my opinion if you often ride with other people. A co worker and I went in 50/50 on the dual pack.

https://smile.amazon.com/Sena-20S-01D-Motorcycle-Bluetooth-Communication/dp/B00KJGPMZI/

Since you'll be on the same bike the longer range of the 20S might not be worth it for you.

Otherwise theres also putting in earbuds with a mic before you put the helmet on and calling each other. (If you have unlimited minutes)

u/wanderingbilby · 1 pointr/Fixxit
u/Hash_Slingin_Slasha · 1 pointr/motorcycles

The Sena SMH 10 is what I got for that purpose, along with some reusable earplugs from Harbor Freight. It is waterproof at least on the outside part, so you can leave it on the helmet. The call quality was surprisingly good because it has a noise cancelling mic, and the sound quality of the music was really good when you use earplugs (it sounded okay without it because the bass was missing). I used it for a year and a half with no issues.

Is your bike covered? Get a strap so you can tie it down. Less surface area for wind to set off your alarm.

You could always get a sturdy waterproof case and a handlebar/stem mount. I've taken some falls with a similar setup and not had any problems. Also, now you've got a giant ass cycling computer!

u/kyzen · 1 pointr/bicycling

It's actually pretty hideous and quite bulky; but I have one on a number of our bikes (used to use our phones for Strava, before we Garmin'd up), including a couple of mountain bikes, and I like the protection that the case part provides for those times I send the thing flying off and tumbling down a hill... so I'm willing to put up with the ugliness.

Also, they seem to change the model slightly sometimes without really indicating it on the Amazon page. I received a couple last December that had a weird ball-and-joint mount that raised the phone case like 3 inches off my bars, instead of the simple clamp style mount I have in use in the picture here. Same phone case part though.

All that said, here's the link

To be honest I bought it because it was the better looking one in the shop at the time.

There are cheaper brands, and more expensive ones with more features, so shop around, but upgrading to one of these will change your world.

u/RavenOdette · 1 pointr/scooter

I felt the same when I first got mine, would barely let it out of my sight when I parked it.

But look at it this way, try and pick it up, the things aren't exactly light, so it's unlikely someone is going to walk off with it, between that and the kill switch and you should be fine in most places.

If you feel better with some extra security though one of these things or a heavy duty bike chain and lock should be good

In Spain they'll hit you pretty hard for that price. They're supposed to pick items at random but if it's more than 100$ you'll get hit.

2- Factory conector the bike harness. http://www.nippynormans.com/gps-accessories/lead-for-connecting-any-garmin-or-tomtom-gps-into-the-bmw-harness
And USB adaptor wired the above mentioned conector. Modified Part, RAXFLY Universal 5V 2.1A Car Charger Power Socket Plug Adapter [ Waterproof ][ Easy Installation ][ Dual USB Ports ]for 12-24V Car Motorcycle Boat RV Vehicle & iPhone iPad Samsung etc https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01M4RW6MR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_.KgNzbREMAW2H



I would like to hear pros and cont, specially regarding rain and inadvertent battery discharging due to the installation.

Obviously the first option is simpler, but I don't want to have extra cabling and I am specially worried about battery drainage.

u/bbtech · 1 pointr/motocamping

please STOP perpetuating that stupid myth about smartphones not being able to route or do tracks when you are out of cell coverage. Iphones and Androids can download maps ahead of time (just like with your stand alone GPS) which allow you to continue to use it when you are well OUTSIDE of cell coverage. I have used my cell phone as a GPS for on and off road for over 3 yrs now without fail (and I didn't spend an extra $600 to do it). Even a decent Garmin GPS will set you back at least $400 (I don't count the 60, 62, 76 and variants because their screens are too damn small to be effective). I also stream music to my Sena SMH10r . There are a plethura of sites that help you to easily set this up. For mostly road use, I recommend a cheap GPS or use your smartphone but if you do moderate off road, I would recommend something with a hardier plug which is what tends to be the problem (I don't mind so much since it's actually a rather easy fix on my Galaxy S4 were it to be damaged).

Tents.... do not buy too cheap on this. I have tried a lot of tents and finally settled on the Ledge Sports Recluse here . It is a three man but really just comfortable enough for two mostly, roomy with a loft and packs really small with poles that are less than a foot long collapsed (easy to fit in panniers and bags).

Personally I would make sure you find something really comfortable to sleep on. I use a blow up mattress and a pump that plugs that goes into my motorcycle to fill it up. Most the pads you see are overpriced/expensive and crap on your back or for side sleepers. If you get a hole that you can't fix, how hard is to find a WalMart or a Target to buy a new one for around 20 to 50 bucks depending on the size you want. I prefer a queen size, great for added weight and so damn comfortable. If my old Coleman Quickbed ever dies, I will be picking up the Coleman Durarest here.

I take my phone, my Nexus 7 with 4G and my small laptop with me everywhere. I have a USB Stick chock full of reading material, music and movies....never get bored and when I want to relax and gaze at the stars, only a power button stands in my way.

Phones can get you into trouble. My buddy called me one night when I was out, this was real late, like around 11 pm. He made a joke about having a soundboard that does bear, wolf or cougar sounds and walking around outside scaring people. I checked the net and found some bear sounds that I downloaded and we joked about it. I went to sleep later after having a number of beers and when I woke up around 2 am to go relieve myself, I carried my phone with me to use as a flashlight. When I was coming back, I passed near this tent of these lesbians and played some Bear sounds. I could hear them freaking a bit and I quickly scammered back into my tent. About half an hour later, a ranger comes by my tent and asks if I have heard any noises. I tell him "you mean...You waking me up". You might ask how I know they were Lesbians and what that has to do with anything but that involves more to tell that I couldn't sum up in a few paragraphs. Suffice is to say that when I am camping, I avoid children, young couples and now, Lesbians.

Good Luck with your endeavors!

I believe your phone is IP68 rated so you don't really need a waterproof case/holder for it.

I wanted to say thank you everyone for your ideas. Some of the stands suggested are things I never would have thought of. For now I have a cheap iPhone mount (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B010OPQVUS/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1). Been playing around with TrainerRoad too and really like it. I like the portability of an iPad, which is what I'm leaning towards for now. If I find a better place in the house that is more permanent, I'll probably do the AppleTV and monitor thing. Appreciate all the help!

My best bet was my [phone mount] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013MDDEDG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1) but the transponder is not wide enough to stay in place. I was thinking about the Cortech bag with the front window too! Does it work well? But that's another 100 $ that I could spend in other gear, so I'm not too sure. My last resort option is to get one of those iPhone running cases and put my transponder in it.
EDIT: And about the groups, that's precisely the kind I'm trying to avoid. There's a time and place for a wheelie but a group ride/ middle of busy street is not it. I'm looking for people to ride the twisties with, get out of the city to enjoy the summer while there's a little left!

I returned the TaoTronics and the Roam handlebar mounts. I did like how the TaoTronics model had a more secure cradling mechanism, but I didn't feel confident that either of them would last more than a couple months. I also took a look at the Cycway mount, which looks pretty solid. I might give that one a try soon.

In what capacity? Are you using it to listen to music, or talk on the phone? Can you give some more details of your experience with it? What helmet are you using it in? How easy was it to install? Otherwise I seem to be missing the point of your post... For anyone else interested here are the reviews on Amazon

Awesome thanks! Yeah waterproofing is just a bonus at this point, but threw it out there in case there is something I didn't find in research. Some reviews have me a bit worried, but so far this looks like the best (and affordable) option for a case just for biking.

I am glad I came across the Quad lock, I was originally considering something like: https://amzn.com/B013MDDEDG but based on how it looks, I am not 100% sure about just how secure it is. The quad lock looks very secure. I also like how I can get a mount for driving too, that is more slim profile than what I currently use (I don't have my own car, I use Zipcar. I would like to keep a car phone holder in my bag so I don't have to worry about going home/remembering to grab it but it's pretty long and takes up a lot of space).

I can tell you that this Kryptonite disc brake lock is a disc detainer (no pun intended).

Bought mine 3 months ago. Love it.

SHOEI RF-1200 RUTS TC-5 XLG https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M1KMBJY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_Mexszb00KC3V8

Came with a pinlock anti fog insert and clear visor.

Ordered the black tinted visor and additional pinlock insert from Amazon.

I've also got the cheap $40 Yideng Motorcycle Bluetooth Intercom Headset Interphone Communication System For Motorbike Skiing Helmet To 2 or More Riders(Single) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01FRY1GC4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_agxszbREDV30S

Speakers suck but so far haven't crackled or distorted.

Talking is good and loud enough to hear, sometimes too loud. But my bike is too loud so I don't use it often as I'd rather listen to music.

SMH5 was pretty affordable for me, like $100 and I get decent sound, hands free talking and people can never tell I'm even riding.
