Nope - was on the armband on my leathers. Used it like that for ages, never had a problem until I was riding along listening to tunes, then the next minute....silence lol.

Was useful as a satnav too using Google navigation and just listening to the directions...battery life was a problem though.

wooops.... should have kept it inside yer jacket

I managed it on my Bandit 600 at 120mph with the phone in the see-through top of my Baglux Alpha tankbag. I was trying to tell my mates I'd catch them up soon, but by the time I'd finished tapping it out I'd passed them stopped in a layby without noticing they were there.

you're a nutcase!

riding and texting??? :O

Commuting i'll whack my headphones in if its cold/wet whatever where basically I won't enjoy the ride as much, but on leisure rides or commuting when its sunny and I can give it the beans a bit more I prefer to be able to hear the engine

People actually ride around listening to music through earphones? Wow.

(Slight derail - sorry folks) which comply tips have you got as I've got some sennheiser cx300 and was gonna buy some complys, but didn't know which ones to go for.

pink floyd,led zep, guns and roses never hurt anybody,most car users blast out there stereos to the point that they cant hear anything else on the road,music and the rumble from my exhaust is all i need.
