I generally listen to music via my iPod and ear buds on longer trips and that set up has worked just find for me, save for when someone's trying to talk to me before I get a chance to get my helmet off and pull the buds out.
I like the idea of having a radio on the bike, but from practicality standpoint, I really don't think I'd use it. Of course, if it was there, I'd use it... but only to play songs of my iPod - I very rarely listen to the radio and when I do it's generally NPR or some other 'news' program, never music.
Anyway, with that all in mind, should I save $1300 and not go with the radio and continue using the system that's worked for me for years. OR, since I'll be dropping $20K on a bike anyway, should I just get all the bells and whistles and decide not to use them if I don't want to?
What sayeth y'all?
