Thank you so much for doing this. I love the videos and the podcast so much that i am a patron. wanted to let you know that the deadline says 11/19/16 instead of 12/19/16.
my bike has been put a way for a week now (don’t like riding when it is below freezing) and i am getting itchy. trying to see if i can travel anywhere south for work and rent a bike.
Great video. Sena is a great product. I have a pair of SMH-10’s. Have worked flawlessly. Still concerned about the inability to transmit voice commands, but I hope Sena will fix this in the future.
I have a military service connected disability with severly impaired hearing.
My VA hearing aids are bluetooth capable. I am hoping the Sena FreeWir will pair with the hearing aids.
Ryan thanks for all you do for the Harley riding community!
Great video on the sena! I was disappointed that you stated it wont work with phone calls, does it work with the CB. The sena websites states that it does.
Great video! Very in depth and covered most questions I would have asked. I know I can visit the store but did you mention the prices? Keep up the great work and stay safe brother.
Have been using this set up for over a year. Before it was called Freewire.It works great and have had no problems with the function of it. Would recommend to anyone who is looking for a Bluetooth setup.
I am definitely getting a biker gripper I have followed Ryan for some time now and I do appreciated his no nonsense approach to helping an supporting the Motorcycle community well done Ryan and team
Looks like a good unit and a great, detailed review of its capabilities! I hope the phone use and voice commands input issues are quickly resolved as I use both of these Boom Box features often.
Bought the Sena 20S and after watching your video that hooking up the Sena to the boom box was a hack, don’t do it. I purchased a 7 pin DIN, installed it using you tutorial. Purchased the LAB headset for a half helmet, which BTW, is a very good product. Next is to purchase the Sena Freewire if I do not win one of yours you are giving away.
This is a great group to support with your purchases. Prices are competitive but what is most important is they will offer tech support! Try that on Amazon… I also understand they work directly with the North Pole and Santa’s workshop to aid and assist those Elves wanting to give their riders something special for being so good through out the year.
Merry Christmas
Very informative review. I didn’t know this existed until now. Ryan does all the hard fact finding which lets me know right up front what works and what doesn’t. Going to get one of these for the start of riding season.
Thanks Ryan.
Great video and looks to be a great product in helping make the Boom Box more “hands free”. I hope in the future they will address this and have an update to allow calls to be answered via the free wire.
Just like usual another great video and follow up video, Thank You for the chance to win the Sena Freewire.
Bought your video for service work and did my 5000 mile service myself !
Hopefully this will solve this problem for connecting everything. Will the new HD/Sena headset eliminate the need for the sena freewire with the new 2017 Road Glide?
Was glad to see this finally happen. I had got a Sena headset before I purchase my new H-D 2015 and was disappointed to find out that I couldn’t use it w/ the new HD. Thanks for the videos and the update. I’ll be grabbing me one come spring.
Godspeed
Micah
First of all thanks to Ryan for all the help he gives to fellow Bikers. I have used the Sena 20S for over a year and works well. I am glad to see the Freewire come available for the Harley Infotainment System, where you can communicate with the System. I would recommend Sena Products to anyone. Thanks again!

Arvel Martin says
I’m trying to figure out how to switch from freewire input to my sena 20s, to intercom with other riders and their 20s.
Donald Lentz says
Hopefully this will solve this problem for connecting everything. Will the new HD/Sena headset eliminate the need for the sena freewire with the new 2017 Road Glide?
Ryan Urlacher says
You’ll need the freewire with the 2017. Nothing has changed with the Boom Box. Same as it was when released in 2014.
Ryan Urlacher says
I doubt it. The freewire will be needed. HD will just stamp their logo on a Sena product and mark the price way up like usual.
Daniel Stuckey says
I love my Sena 20S and looking forward to getting a FreeWire in time. Buddy got his and is rubbing it in.
Ryan Urlacher says
Awesome Daniel!! Buddies gotta bust each others chops….LOL. Don’t forget, we have the Freewire ready to go on the shelf right in our store: https://shop.lawabidingbiker.com/collections/sena-headsets/products/sena-freewire-bluetooth-transmitter-for-harley-davidson-motorcycles
