Early Next Year new Scala G9x will be available. Some information:
Cardo Scala Rider G9x - Bluetooth Communication and Entertainment System
(Individual set with cable and hybrid boom microphone)
The Cardo Scala Rider G9x is the successor of the established Rider G9 high-end Bluetooth Communication system from Cardo. Compared to the Rider G9, the G9x offers the new music sharing function for rider and pillion and first of all an Android app for configuring the G9x via a compatible smartphone.
Like the G9, the G9x offers many functions, and is a group intercom, stereo Bluetooth headset and RDS FM radio receiver in one. To ensure that you never need to take your hands off the handlebar, almost all the functions are conveniently controllable via voice commands. In addition to the rider-pillion intercom function with a maximum range of 1600 metres and up to 4 users in conference, the new One+8 function enables up to 9 bikers to communicate with each other in toggling mode, and they can even call each other via voice command. Another innovative feature is the simple procedure for coupling two Cardo Scala Rider G9x devices. All you have to do is briefly touch the two devices against each other, and the coupling is done. A safety bonus is provided by the integral group signal function, which enables you to warn fellow bikers behind you about critical situations ahead. You can use the Cardo Community web portal to individually adapt the Scala Rider G9, and even plan tours with other users.
Voice instructions from your GPS sat nav (e.g. TomTom Rider or Garmin zumo) and phone calls from your Bluetooth mobile phone are forwarded to you direct, in top sound quality. An integral RDS FM radio receiver with 6 programmable station presets perfectly rounds off the wide range of features offered by this high-tech communication device.
The wireless installation kit for motorcycle helmets can be fitted to almost any helmet and is ready for operation in just a few minutes.
