About this deal

The universal pairing feature makes the headset compatible with most types of Bluetooth earpieces and headsets on the market. The THOKWOK Motorcycle Bluetooth Headset is one of Lexin’s top competitors, and while it offers many of the same features, it has a voice conference range of just half a mile, which can be a dealbreaker for some riders. Lexin has definitely outdone itself by offering a one-mile range, which will allow you to stay connected to your friends at all times. Noise Canceling Lexin has a connection scheme where the intercoms are either an end unit, or a bridge. A bridge is a unit that connects to an end unit, and also to another bridge so 2 connections. The end units make only one connection to a bridge. So each motorcycle has one end unit, and one bridge unit, and the bridge units connect the 2 motorcycles. You start by pairing the 2 bridge units on channel 2. This is done by holding the vol - and intercom button until the unit goes into pairing mode, and you repeat this on the other bridge unit. Pairing mode is shown by an alternating red and blue LED, as well as a message through the speakers. Then, one either of the 2 bridges, you press the intercom button and the unit will say, "scanning" and then "connected". The LEDs on both units go blue. Next, you pair one end unit to a bridge unit on one motorcycle, and repeat for the second motorcycle. These pairings are done on channel 1 and use the vol + and intercom buttons. They pair the same way as the bridges. We've got the pairing procedure down, if nobody changes a setting then the next time we're all together it semi-automatically reconnects us all with no problems. We do have to press the intercom button to connect, it's not totally automatic. To start from scratch takes 5 minutes or less for all 4 helmets. This model is designed specifically for motorcycle use. Often, riders complain that they’re unable to hear their headsets when talking on the phone or communicating with other riders, over the roar of their bike’s engine, other riders, and cars, but that’s where this model is different. It’s designed specifically to allow you to hear clearly over engine noise, thanks to the top of the line noise-canceling technology.

This model comes with Bluetooth enabled GPS navigation, which will come in handy when you’re traveling with other people. Use the conference feature to allow other riders in your party to listen in on GPS instructions, so you won’t get separated during heavy traffic. The GPS can clearly be heard through the speakers, thanks to the noise-canceling feature. Performance

Reviews

If you’re riding with other people, then the voice conference feature can be a total lifesaver. If you’re tired of losing one or more members of your riding team due to miscommunication on the road, then the conference feature will definitely come in handy.

This leading model by Lexin comes loaded with all the right features for the casual and serious rider. The Lexin B4FM motorcycle Bluetooth intercom is reliable and can be the best piece of gear you bring along on your next cross country ride. But is it really a solid performer like so many riders claim it is? Is it worth the higher price tag? And can it handle regular use? Let’s find out. Lexin is a popular name brand that most motorcycle riders are familiar with. Over the years, their headsets have continued to improve in terms of features, functionality, and overall reliability.It features a beginner-friendly design that allows you to easily set it up and install it in a variety of helmet sizes and styles. If you’re planning a long trip with your riding buddies, then you’re probably online searching for the best motorcycle Bluetooth headset, one that offers a longer range, and a model that’s easy to use, especially for your buddies that aren’t exactly tech-savvy. This headset can withstand anything that mother nature throws at it and will still operate the same and keep you well-connected with other riders. The only issue you may run into is difficulty hearing your buddies on the voice conference if you’re dealing with high winds, however, this is a very common issue for most headsets. FM Radio Thanks to Bluetooth V3.0, the LX-B4FM offers great audio quality for both incoming and outgoing sound. The intuitive button operations make the LX-B4FM a perfect companion for motorcycle helmets.

Many models in this price range offer an average battery life of twelve hours, so I was blown away by the longer battery life of one hundred and twenty hours when the headset is in standby mode. In terms of talk time, the headset will allow you to talk for up to eight hours before the battery needs a charge. If you want to listen to music while you ride, this model offers up to fifteen hours of streaming time, which is excellent. In terms of charging time, this headset will take about one hour to fully charge. Exchangeable Mic Durable, compact, and designed to work with most helmet brands, this headset will not take up too much space in a helmet, however, the large earpads can make it uncomfortable to wear for a long period of time if you’re dealing with a full-face helmet that doesn’t have any recessed space inside that’s meant to accommodate a headset.

FIRMWARE UPDATES FOR WINDOWS

One feature I would like added is the ability to have a second blue tooth channel so my Android phone could stay connected for music, phone, GPS, etc. Still, for the price this setup is hard to beat.

Our Verdict: The B4FM Bluetooth headset is compatible with most Bluetooth enabled devices, will work with every type of smartphone, and offers a hands-free operation so you can ride and answer calls, forward calls, make calls, listen to FM radio, stream music, or speak to your other riding buddies via the voice conferencing feature. It also features a longer than average battery life, so it’s perfect for longer rides, or for the rider who’s guilty of forgetting to charge their devices. At dinner, we were talking and all concluded that this intercom does what we needed it to do, was surprisingly quiet all day, and has plenty of range. We never once lost connection other than the range test we performed. My experience: The intercoms came in a nice box with everything I needed to do the installation, including both a boom mic and an internal mic. I started with my Shoei GT AIR. I took out the padding and the intercom installed very easily. Where I had to McGyver things was where the wires come out of the helmet to the unit, my cheek padding needed a cutout to pas the wires. So a small 1/4" channel was cut into the cheek pad plastic retained and voila, successful installation. The speakers are Velcro'd in and I used the non-boom mic they provided in my full face helmet. My wife has a 3/4 LS2, that installation was slightly more difficult as some of the internal padding cannot be removed. I had to use the boom microphone on her helmet and ended up using a bit of hot glue to keep the wires from flopping around. This model allows you to communicate hands-free, for a safer riding experience. With this type of headset, you can access Siri to control the headset, search the internet, answer or forward a call, end a call, and more. It’s also compatible with S Voice for Samsung voice commands, which also allows you to receive or make calls hands-free, access FM radio, listen to music, or listen to GPS directions.

The LX-B4FM can connect to other Bluetooth devices supporting HSP/HFP (Headset Profile/Hands Free Profile) and A2DP (Advance Audio Distribution Profile). HSP/HFP is standard in all phones with Bluetooth features. Almost all Bluetooth MP3 players, smartphones, and audio dongles support A2DP to send stereo audio to Bluetooth headsets like the LEXIN LX-B4FM. This model comes with a couple of mics, allowing you to choose between a boom mic for a flip face helmet or open face helmet, or a button mic for a full-face helmet. Waterproof Design This model is versatile and able to work with other models of Bluetooth compatible headsets, all smartphones, MP3 players, and other Bluetooth devices. You may have trouble with the voice conference feature at times since it can lag and cause a type of echoing effect that will make it difficult to communicate with your fellow riders.
