Guest Guest Posted March 17, 2011 Hi,Think I'm going to want a new lid in a few months that will let me play music, use phone and flip front. Want Pinlock as well but still looking around at the after market kits for that. Spotted the VIPER RS-V131 BLUETOOTH 4 for about £140 anyone got one or used one?Found this on youtube as well: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know my present helmet needs plugs because of the airflow going underneath but I'm hoping the Viper is a lot better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've short listed about 3 helmets and got someone on eBay that can do me the Viper with Pinlock for £149. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've short listed about 3 helmets and got someone on eBay that can do me the Viper with Pinlock for £149. Paid about £140 for mine on ebay. there is helmet noise at speed but you can still hear warnings from tomtom. Music clear upto about 65-70 , thats on 75% volume, from iphone. For a decent phone conversation I would say about 50mph, only used this once though but the recipient didn't know i was on handsfree on a bike, and my side was very clear. I would certainly recommend thie viper, but, having said that, I dont have anything to compare it with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anybody know of a universal one that will fit? Viper don't make one for this model yetI had the same issue with charging it on the road, often do several thousand mile trips etc... my solution was to buy a spare mains charger from Viper for the plug, and an old USB charger cable swapped the ends over after checkng the current pin outs with a multimeter and have a 12volt cigarette lighter to USB adapter I use for charging phones etc. with me anyway so it's just the cable thats needed. Voltage is the same as the mains charger, and it has worked fine for 2 years now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just got the helmet myself and i was researching this very subject before i bumped into this post. Do you reckon I would need to install a fuse as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
