Riding with an ipod - SV650.org

Does anyone do it, or do people see it as a huge no no on safety grounds?

I do on the longer/motorway rides just to keep me entertained.

Use to on the 'ped - when the danger of two wheels wasn't at all apparent to me. Naive teenager. Not got into it on the SV now I've matured.

I probably will do soon. I use to go between Basingstoke and Ashford once every month and those journies were long and boring. Wished I had done then.

But at the moment no. Will get back into it soon.

Would love to but a combination of tight helmet and big lugs means it's way too uncomfy after any more than 5 mins riding.

I do !!

I do and love it.

In some strange way it seems to stop my mind from wandering all over the place, i definitely seem to be able to focus better on my riding with low level music.

I do, run it through my Autocom.

I do, stops me over analysing myself when I make a mistake.

sometimes but its more than low level music, as loud as possible to destroy the sound of my exhaust.
