Parrot SK4000 (first half of 2008)

Bluetooth Hands-Free Motorcycle Kit

Ride connected

Now you can make and take calls, listen to FM radio or play your favorite digital music – all while riding calm and cool. Parrot SK4000 is a full-featured Bluetooth hands-free kit designed expressly for motorcycles. Completely wireless, it fits on your helmet and automatically links to a Bluetooth A2DPenabled cell phone in your pocket or saddlebags. Its built-in, rechargeable battery provides up to ten hours of use and recharges via a mini-USB jack. A 110-240 Volt AC/DC charger is included.

It talks so you can too

The Parrot SK4000 automatically synchronizes its phonebook with your cell phonebook. Updates are automatic as well. Calling couldn’t be easier: Use the handlebar remote to browse your phonebook and hear each contact name spoken via Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology. Indicate your choice or simply speak the name of the person you want to call. Either way, the call will be dialed automatically.

A sound system for the road

In addition to hands-free calling, you can listen to the FM/RDS radio, stream digital music from your Bluetooth A2DP-enabled cell phone or device or plug in an iPod® or other music player. The SK4000 also boasts two stunning sound effects: Stereo Widening and Virtual Super Bass, to bring your playlist alive. Thanks to Parrot expertise in Bluetooth technology, phone calls, music and your favorite ball game or motorsports event are crystal clear with the SK4000 kit. And the volume adjusts automatically to compensate for road and wind noise as you ride.

Control at your fingertips

The Parrot SK4000 features an innovative wireless remote control that mounts on the handlebars. All phone and music functions can be accessed intuitively so you can keep your hands on the handlebars and eyes on the road for maximum control. And, the controls are large enough to be easily used when wearing gloves.

Adapts to your helmet

The SK4000 kit can be fitted to your motorcycle helmet in minutes. The microphone is mounted on a flexible coupling designed to fit most any helmet size and configuration. The headset speakers are positioned inside the helmet with hook and loop or adhesive strip fasteners.
