Sena 10s vs 10r

[eric27]

Does anyone have input on which one might be better?
I am using a dual sport helmet.
Thanks.

10R is nice package but if you plan long rides I wasn't happy with battery life. I think 5-6 hours was best I got out of it on a long day and then I had to ride with dangling cord and it doesn't recharge while you ride, just lets you play music, etc. (that issue is identical on 10s)
just my .02

Good luck,
Dave

I recently upgraded from the older SMH-10 to the new 10S. Works well, and as for battery life, I recently rode for 13 hours talking to my riding buddy for much of that (and we kept the intercom open virtually non-stop that entire ride), and the battery life was just fine. Can't offer any comparisons to the other unit.

Thanks all for your input.

I use a SMH 10R. No problem at all with battery life on 10-hour days (but I don't use as intercom, just for GPS and occasionally for music at low speeds).

Thanks for that.
How is the music at highway speeds?
Cheers!

I would say it depends on your bike and your helmet. On my R1200RS with its minimal windshield it's useless over 90km/h.
