Don't know if any of you have experience with the AmpliRider, except for Rick Streifel in BC. But if you are looking for a clean way to enjoy tunes without the expense of an Autocom or Starcom, and if you don't have any real need for an intercom or bike-to-bike, then this unit may be for you!! http://www.electric-avenues.com/amplirider.html The small size of this unit makes it a natural for tankbag installation, so of course that's what I did! The zippered inner liner of my Fieldsheer bag combined with the rigid wall made install relatively easy. I ran a 3.5mm female-end patchcord out the front through a custom grommet to seal out water, and I ran the shaft of the volume controller right below it. So the volume & disconnect are right in front of me. The power connection is a 2-pole marine connecter with gold terminals & rubber sheathing to keep out moisture. The nice thing is that when you open the tankbag you see NOTHING but the 3.5mm patchcord for whatever I'm listening to (MP3, radio, CD). I also bought a pair of Koss KSC75 headphones for $25 and used the drivers for helmet speakers. Audiophiles like these drivers, and I do too! So for a $115 investment, I have a no-frills but totally useful way to rock out on the road. And yes, I can hear these drivers just fine, at highway speeds plus, THROUGH my Leight Super foam earplugs. This is exactly what I wanted, and darn it if it doesn't work wonderfully! I'd post pics, but I ain't as skilled as Bob, Greg and Colin just yet. I'll likely put some up on Webshots later this week, and I'll be at Mike Bryant's on Saturday as well. Mike B / Gig Harbor, WA
