Headset intercom for multiple riders

Hello all,

Looking for a intercom system for about 6 riders does anyone have any recommendations? there's a lot of cheap looking ones on eBay but haven't been able to see any reviews.

Thanks for any tips/experiences shared

My group uses Interphone fM4's We have 4 but I think it may connect to more .
I bought a pair from Birmingham bike show for £170.00 , maybe cheaper on eBay but I wanted to buy from a main dealer .
I love mine , fm radio , very good quality sound .
They do have a fm5 out but I've read mixed reviews .

I've just checked the info to be clear myself , the f4mc allows you to toggle between riders , the new f5mc allows a conference type conversation .
my mates went out with them and I missed it but I've used it loads between 2 bikes .
Looks like the f5's the way to go for you .

I'll give one of them a shout and see how they got on .

me and 2 m8s have the interphone f5's, we can all talk together but they can be a pig to connect sometimes. other than that occasional hiccup they perform very well at up to around 70mph, distance between each rider is very good, I think its about a quarter mile range per unit, maybe more cant remember tbh so that equates to around 1.5miles for 6 users. battery life, connected to each other is around 6hours.

Sena 20s seem to be the best out there. I've got a set and they blow the Scala alternatives out of the water.

I also use a sena intercom thing theres about 8 of us, ive never really used it as i dont know how too but all my matea rate them, can chat in 1 big group chat or just 2 way , also got fm radio etc so its pretty cool , and if ur all linked up and roughly a mile from each over u can still link through other systems so you can talk to people about 7 miles away "aperebtly" like i say u dont even know how to use it but is good for long trips to the tt for example

i find yelling at the lights saves me listening to them chatting shit and saves me a lot of money to spend on fuel and sweets.

Do these things use up your phone plan? Or do they work on a radio frequency that allows all riders in the 'conference' to listen and speak?
