Built-In Systems
|
Built-in radar protection systems have
a number of features that differ from stand-alone detector based systems:
- More discreet - Very little hardware is
visible on the motorcycle, usually just a small control panel
- More secure - Because the main system
components are usually hidden behind body panels there is less chance of
someone walking away with your valuable equipment
- More Convenient - No radar detector to
move from another vehicle to your bike when you want to go for a ride.
Built in systems are permanently installed, you just jump on your bike and
go
However, built-in systems do come with some special
requirements that the user must consider before undertaking an installation:
- Space requirements - If you intend to hide
the major components you need a bike of adequate size with some space
behind/underneath the body panels. Larger bikes with fairings in
front of the handlebars are good candidates for mounting the remote
antenna unit that is normally included with a built-n system. A bike
with internal fairing space similar to or larger than a Suzuki Hayabusa
should have sufficient space for mounting these items
- Longer Installation Time - If you intend
to hide the major components it will require the removal of body panels or
fairing. You will also need to come up with a custom mounting
for the antenna unit and a place to mount and weatherproof the interface
module and display/controller.
- If the cost of installation is included,
built in systems may be more expensive than stand-alone detector based
systems.
Built-in radar protection systems may not be a good
installation project for beginners but they can be a rewarding addition to
your motorcycle. |

Passport 8500ci
|
|
Introducing the Passport
8500ci, a fully integrated, high performance radar and laser detector
system. It offers the convenience of built-in discreet security yet installs
in dramatically less time and with fewer components than all other
integrated detection systems. |
Installation Time
Significantly Reduced
Most custom installed systems require a significant investment in time for
installation, up to 6 hours depending on the level of customization and
vehicle type. The Passport 8500ci was designed to be installed quicker than
any other custom installed radar detector unit on the market. |
Extreme Radar Protection
The new Passport 8500ci radar detection system offers the award winning
performance you have come to expect from Escort. |
Weather Resistant
Antenna/Receiver
The Passport 8500ci Antenna/Receiver unit is weather resistant. The
Display/Controller and Easy-Connect Interface require additional weather
protection for use in motorcycle applications. |
Laser Detection
The Antenna/Receiver needs a "view" of the road in order to detect laser
signals. If you intent to install the Antenna/Receiver so its view is
obstructed (e.g., behind a opaque plastic fairing) the unit will not be able
to detect laser. You can gain back laser detection and add laser
jamming capability by adding the optional shifter pack. |
The Passport
8500ci features:
- Blistering all-band protection
- Discreet installation to protect from theft
- Fully integrated with the convenience of auto-on
at vehicle start up
- Advanced digital signal processing
- Auto sensitivity mode automatically reduces false
alarms
- EZ preferences for customizing user settings
- Compact Display/ Controller; 2 inches W x 1 inch
H x 1/2 inch D
