    Just want music in my helmet

    What recommendations do you have for a "simple" Bluetooth helmet device that can be paired with the stereo unit on my 2016 R1200RT? No GPS, no phone calls while riding, no intercom, etc. I'm even surprised that I'm asking, because a stereo on a motorcycle runs afoul of what motorcycling is to...

I can't find one in the manual. I've tried "0000" and "9999" but to no avail. Does anyone know the...

    Garmin Zumo 660 paired to SENA SMH5 Bluetooth

    Anyone have experience with this? Pro or con? Is the volume loud enough to hear wearing earplugs? Any issues with the phone pairing.....hearing and speaking? Does the phone override GPS instructions or the MP3 player? I had problems pairing my 660 to a remote speaker in the past and I want to...
