Got it today

Post by Zebedee »

Picked up the ( new to me ) bike today and it's everything and more I was looking for. Came home the long way, only a 200 mile detour and was cackling like a crazy man Inside my helmet. How does a bike this size handle so well? One question, there is an autocom active plus system wired in to the bike. How can I check it's working without spending the money on headsets first?

Active Plus is quite an old model. Richard is right, borrow a headset before shelling out £40+ for one.

Autocom Dealers usually have display/test rigs in store with headsets which can be removed from the stands & plugged into your bike.

Both Infinity Motorcycles & Barrie Robson BMW in York were able to help me to test/diagnose my Autocom/Sat. Nav. equipment with their portable Autocom headsets.
