yip, got one on my gixxer, seems to work ok, havnt missed any cops so far...

. Only issue i have with it is it doesnt tell you what direction the sinal is coming from. Bluetooth earpiece works well but only really see the leds at night. Tidy mount and wiring. I bought mine in from usa as cheaper than buying local unfortunately.

WHat's the range like wynw? One online review questioned this aspect of them...

And yes, they ARE cheaper from US. Who'd you get yours from?

seems to pick up Ka from 1-1.5 km with out any problem unless they are using them properly. The new speed camera's, pretty much on top of them when it goes off(similar to my valentine1). I bought mine direct from TPX, great communication and fast delivery. Got stung with gst going through customs so it now is a navigational device for my business!!! Will try and upoad an install photo once i figure out how to do it.

just be cearfull tho, detectors sold by radar direct are tuned for NZ, some imports may not be.

Radar directs price isnt to bad, I have the Escort 8500 and Redline, like the V1 and Bel STI they are a cool $1000 add on the $400 for a HARD system (wirelessLED light in the helmet) this TPX is well priced, but I choos the other as I swap them between cages, dont know if you can with the TPX

Direct from TPX is considerably cheaper, dangerous.

From what I can work out, there is no difference between the Radar Direct version and the original from TPX. Oh and you can swap the TPX to a car as well - there is a car mount available for them and a car power cord.
