Head unit that can handle bumps
Switched out my head unit because the stock one died at the end of last season. Swapped out for a 310btx Sony and now with a good size bump in the road my faceplate goes blank. It's a connection problem with the faceplate because it plays well but I can't see the screen. It works again if I open and close the deck. Is there a more reliable head unit that will last more than 1 season? Not trying to switch out decks every season, preferably Sony because I have to switch out my biketronics adapter if I do, so the unit has to be worth it if I do switch!

Aside from that, if you want to jump speedbumps, get a dirt bike. :-)

Didn't have a problem till I went back to school. My school is in DC, I think their street repair guys are on crack! The roads suck and I like my ohlins a bit stiff, for the twisties. I will try the alcohol and tightening the connection.
