If you like riding on group tours then it might be handy to have an helmet intercom, or bluetooth phone connection.
The Interphone F5 is a new helmet intercom & Bluetooth device, for motorcycle touring riders.
We’ve found that sometimes on tour the lead rider might want to warn about a hazard ahead, or tell everyone that a fuel/rest stop is coming up etc. It saves on hand-waving if you can communicate via intercom and if you often carry a pillion passenger when on a motorbike tour, then it’s great to be able to chat as you see the sights.
The Interphone F5 has a 1.5 mile range, and can link up to six riders, so it is perfect for a group trip to a big race meeting like Assen, Brno or Le Mans.
One flick of the button and you can switch between Bluetooth, music channel or intercom. The device fits inside a full or open face lid and there’s a built-in FM radio with 8 pre-set station memory.
If a call comes in it has a voice command menu, so you don’t have to learn what a series of beeps and noises means. It finds other headsets automatically, there’s no `pairing’ sequence to set up.
The Interphone F5 retails at £349 for a pair of headsets and Motohaus do the distribution in the UK. You can call them on 01256 704 909 – say MCi Tours sent you, it spreads the word on our blog.
