@@thelongdaysofwheeling124 thanks for taking the time to reply. I thought that might be the case. I've gone ahead and bought 4, will be testing them out next week! It does say for optimal performance you should ride in the order of connection so units 1-2-3-4 should ride in formation 1-2-3-4, and that units 2-3 (bridges) should keep "within the stated intercom range"...did you do this and still experience poor sound?

@@babb101 We actually have two machines, a two up ATV and a 2 seat SxS...so wife and I as bridges, one on each machine...and then daughter tied to her and son tie to me. That way I can hear wife and son just great. Wife and hear me and daughter well. If we swap them out so that we end up with both bridge on the same machine, they're useless. So other than that one issue, I do think they are great. I do wish range was a little better in wooded areas. But it's not often we get too far apart. And it's easy to tell if the bridges are getting to that threshold as there starts to be some constant static on the line so to speak. So lead driver just slows down a tad till the rear driver catches up and the static is gone. On a straight stretch, that's a long ways off in the distance. But in wooded areas it's likely 25% of that straight line distance. Let us know how it works out for you or if you find any tricks.

Hi. I need a bluetooth intercomm for my fz6S. I mainly need it so I can hear the sat nav while riding on the motorway at higher speeds. Is this lexin good enough sound quality wise? How is it at around 120 kmh? (75 mph) Any other recommendations? Don't want to really spend a lot as I still need to purchase a sat nav. But is the FT4 /pro worth it over b4fm?

Ok, hard to cover all questions, but you didnt test out the Comm with the other unit? When you play music from your phone to your headset, does it also continuously transmitt the same music to the 2nd unit/rider or does the other rider have to pair up with their own bluetooth player? Or do or can you pair up with one bluetooth player for both? What is the range before crackeling or dropout?
