Default In fairing radar detector

Hey folks!

I was wondering if anyone out there has tried this particular model and if it was any good. I like the fact that it is built in and also serves as an outside air temp and voltage display as well.

Hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday.

Although I haven't tried this particular unit, the XTR0690 auto unit is awesome. Love it!

That is totally cool and exactly what I need. I tend to talk with LEOs more often than my insurance would like me too!! I searched for reviews and there are not many and they are mixed. If you search you can find them for less than $200. I want the Valentine with the remote console but it is expensive. This may be worth a try and a very clean installed look. Would have to replace my voltage meter.

Anybody try one of these? Any actual testing?

Why replace the voltage meter? I would chose to swap out the ambient air gauge or if you have an oil temp gauge move it to the side of the rear head like the dyna/ softail oil pressure gauge.

That looks like a sweet unit, but I was searching for something a bit more stealthy so when I ride through Virginia, I will not be scrambling to take it off. They tend to frown on detectors there....

Looks like they did their homework. It can display voltage and ambient air[8D]

I don't need temptation to speed. I think I'll stay clear of this one.
