Good afternoon!

I have been getting bored of having no radio when riding the bike (although I can stream off the internet and listen to mp3s).

I have an Idea which evolves a small (or a persnonal) DAB radio and a bluetooth transmitter under the seat, which could connect to the Sena bluetooth thing on my helmet.

I think get the stuff off ebay, power the radio off the battery and job done.

Any suggestions?

My Uncle popped round yesterday on one of them... well the older 'only' 1500cc version.
Has a fucking CD auto-Changer in the Boot Shocked
He was annoyed at me referring to the rear luggage compartment as a 'boot'.... But..... it is. its as big as the boot in my Civic.
In fact... I could have sworn it WAS a Civic... until I turned round to find the seat-belt!
The 'Dash-board'?!?! I could swear the dials are identical to the ones in the Civic! Even the tacho calibrations... up to 7Krpm are the same. AND the heater vents!
Well balenced for something that weighs MORED than the Civic, though!

Does your phone not have a radio?
sticking a pair of headphones in your lugs has to be easier and more cost effective than wiring up a dab under your seat!

Isn't riding while listening to music dangerous? I mean you could end up doing around 90mph because you got so excited surely?

Exactly!! It's like watching violent films and being brainwashed into a killing spree.
Hate it when that happens.

Download TuneIn Radio app - every radio station in the world ever.

You'll need a good data connection though Razz

Indeed. Clever things these smart phones.
Alternatively you could get yourself a police scanner app and listen live to your own police chase while trying to keep up with your mates Laughing Thumbs Up

Often bewilderd by people who can listen to a radio whilst on a bike - all I can hear is the noise of the wind and the engine.

Saw a goldwing towing a trailer with a huge sound system in it once - or the trailer might of literally just been one big sound system Laughing you could definately hear it in that case even with the motor going at it. Think i'd stick with headphones personally though Laughing
