Hell I thought I was the only one riding a Harley while listening to bluegrass, all depends on what you like. Thinking about adding the xm thru my zumo 550 anybody else have that set up, wondering about reception.

55 yrs old, makes me an old guy, I guess. I'm mostly on Alt Nation, Lithium, Rawdog Comedy, Classic Vinyl and Outlaw Country.


I wish they'd quit monkeying around with the channel lineup, though. I still need to go back in and reprogram my receiver from the last shake-up.

I-Pod Touch. I use it in my work truck and then on the bike. I made up a playlist for the bike (Ridin' Tunes). Its a mix of classic rock tunes and southern rock. I have a few of he 80s classics mixed in. I think I have close to 600 tunes on it and just hit the shuffle button and get a different mix every time.

61 and for anyone that age that's from the NY area you have to try the Loft #30. In the afternoon is Meg Griffin from the old WNEW-fm. Fire up a doobie, crank up the Bose and clean the hog. That's quality garage time.

I'm starting to learn as well that channels change depending upon the time of day and probably the day of the week. What I mean is I've tuned to a channel, say Classic Rewind just for example, and they're playing stuff a bit too heavy for me but later in the day I put the same channel on and it seems the string of tunes is right down my alley. Makes it difficult to find what you want. Appreciate all these suggestions though.

The Sirius in my truck updated my presets to the new channel numbers by itself - I didn't have to do anything.

Just added a Stratus 6 to the scoot today.

I mainly listen to 70s, Deep Tracks, Grateful Dead, Classic Rewind, Classic Vinyl, Raw Dog, Spectrum, Boneyard, BB King's Bluesville... oh, and I'm over 50.

I don't think age has a lot to do with it. I'm 53 and mostly stay on Boneyard and Hair Nation.

Mine reprogrammed itself too. I just knew where the other stations were from the preset ones. Now I need to learn their location all over again.

Plus I see they added extra cities to the traffic channels. They are not as often now.

I just got a new Jeep that has satellite radio and I got to say, I find it totally useless. No matter which type of music I feel like listening to it seems that channel plays alot of total crap inbetween a hit song here and there. MP3's are the way to go. My girl burns them with the songs we like and they hold 120 songs each. That's alot of great non-stop music and I never need to change channels or lose the music under bridges or tunnels.......and it's free music!
