    I've had an rx65 which was adequate in most instances. Recently went with a uniden r3. Can't be assed spending the extra for the GPS version. Shouldn't be worried about cameras on a bike anyway. The range on the R series unidens blows away pretty much all the others for ka detection. I've picked up continuous sources from over 3km away, over hills and round bends. As others point out, instant on can still catch you out but if you're intelligent about where you're speeding you shouldn't have a problem. I know people rave about the Tpx but it's no better than an rx65 in most tests despite being nearly twice the price. Got my r3 on ebay for less than $500 delivered. Just run earphones unless you want to fuck around with wireless and Bluetooth dongles etc

    Yes. On the unidens you can turn off k band and the ka band is segmented so you can narrow that sweep to the range in which the stalker units used here operate, eliminating almost all falsing

    Same I got a small speaker from Dick Smith and converted an old curly cord from a cell phone charger couple of plugs solder on and only one connection everytime.
    Works great
    On a Motorcycle you're penetrating distance, right along with the machine!! In a car you're just a spectator, the windshields like a TV!!
