Shoei GT Air II and Sena SRL 2 - Install & Review

#shoeiGTair2 #srl2 #bluetoothcomms
The Shoei GT-Air II is a great touring helmet, but match it with the SRL2 audio system from Sena and it becomes a fantastic touring helmet. I like to use comms units, but having something bolted to the side of your helmet isn't ideal, particularly from a safety point of view. In this video, I show you how to install the components and then run through their use and performance.
**The audio does get quieter from 03:44 onwards. I had a problem where it sounds fine in Final Cut Pro, but is quiet when exported. Sadly I couldn't find a solution and this is the best I could do**

A big thanks to my channel partners for their continued support;

Had this exact combo about a year now (after my friend bought it) and thoroughly recommend it.
Clearer and louder than the cardo unit I had previously.
Battery lasts all day too. 👍

Really enjoyed this. I have got a GT air 2 and I love it, looking to get some bluetooth connectivity for GPS etc and wasn't quite sure about this unit until now! Has made up my mind. Thank you.

Be careful with the installation of each part of the harness, e.g. it's best to plug the mic socket into the speaker socket BEFORE plugging the speaker into its recess else you may break the tiny socket when it's already in the narrow and shallow channel. Also, the two antenna triangles don't just "snap into place", they have to be slid up from below the helmet else the two retaining tabs could break if you try to snap it in from the side.

Very good review as always, I love the GT Air 2 great helmet, best review on the sena on YouTube I’ve seen, think I am having to get one now. Good stuff 👍

[mcviegas]

Another excellent presentation! Only my second one to listen to so far same sitting. Thank you! Now, I don't want to pay anywhere close to $150 & up for a very reasonable blue tooth, so what can you recommend for a very budgeted USN Veteran?!?

I do like your helmet reviews Tony.
They're always clear and as unsubjective as can be made.
Nice one - carry on the great work fella.
You're one of the few YTers I'd consider Patreoning if you ever go for that.

I am getting this helmet and bluetooth unit soon, this video was very clear about the installation, good work.

Nice video, I was on the fence about this system, but after viewing this video I went ahead and ordered the Sena SRL for my Shoei GT Air II

[Mohikan]

Great helmet so far! I just baught it after my schuberth c3pro. Of course they are in different categories but shoei make me feel much much more comfy!

[MM-cods]

Love the modular aspect of the helmet but the sound quality of the SRL-2 is mediocre at best, not to mention the static.

[richfield]

Thank you!!

The instructions were about as much use as a blind guide dog.

Now fitted thanks to this video. ...

[OldManTony]

That’s a really neat job, I’d be so tempted to spend all that extra money if I had the GTAir 2.

[jonathongallant]

Thanks for this, great review. made my mind up on next helmet and sena.

[jerryanker]

Awesome, very helpful just got
Mine.

[bradleyalexander]

New to the channel and that was very well shot and described. Straight and to the point no bs. 👍🏼

[reboot]

Cant seem to get the speakers to click in to their recessed holes . Any ideas ?

[noshelter]

Great review - excellent detail and video references.

[MilSurp]

Ok, …. that was weird. I see no comment about the massive audio drop out recording to the GoPro from around the 5:15 mark in this video. This is not a good advert for the system. Am I missing something here, or does my own audio just keep dropping out at the same time everytime I reply this review?

[haraldfischerlehner]

thx very much for the detailed review. could you say anything concerning wet stability / usability and duration of the battery / unit while using (standby & use e.g. radio)

[Turkdogdu]

Hi. Thank you for the review but I want to learn how is the operation on riding time ? Is it easy or do we need to take care more than others like 30K ?
