Does anyone listen to an mp3 player or FM tuner while riding? If so, what kind? I have a 6gb Rio Carbon. I know its not an IPod but it does the job.

Mini-disk for me, but only on long freeway rides.

Re: MP3 Players

I almost bought one of those a few years ago. How do you like them? Haven't they just almost been phased out?

Re: MP3 Players

I really like mine. Sure it doesn't have the ability to hold 10,000 songs. The mini-disk can hold about three CD's worth of music. I've never had it skip. You can toss them around because they are in their own protective case. Don't really see as much of them anymore. Most of my friends have MP3 players of some type. The only real downside is that you have to switch disks, which can be interesting if you are traveling down the road. I'd get an MP3 player but I don't wanna be a follower:smilebig: .

Pretty tough changing a 80+. Thats one of the reasons I haven't went to an Ipod. Besides that I think they suck.

Re: MP3 Players

Listen to mine everytime I get on my bike, I have an MPIO or something like that I got it cuz its tiny as hell and the "Play/Pause" button is the only one on the face of it so its easy to pause the music when I need to with leather gloves on and all. It holds like an hour of music so it gets a little annoying listening to the same songs over and over on long rides.

I have an iPod, with an AirClick remote so the player can be tucked away, and the remote is velcroed to the triple-clamp. That way I can change songs, play/pause, etc.

I have a 1 gig Ipod nano or something, it has no screen and only 5 buttons very easy to operate while riding. basically you get, volume, skip, play/pause. It's that simple.

ipod shuffle! nice and light.. anyway if you are going to listen to music you should check out autocom easi - 7 and get one why you can. i just got one and i love it. it also comes with helmet speakers. anyway you can listen to music radar detector cell phone or talk bike to bike.. and when you are listening to music and your radar goes off or phone rings it will mute the music and put the sound of the other device threw.

also they retail for 189$ but they are discontinued.. i picked mine up for 80$ at a local stealer.
