Sena SMH 10 & Interphone F5MC Over the last year or so, we’ve been testing a couple of intercoms while scootering around Europe.

It seems the latest line to develop your range into is cleaning products, with a number of new names on the shelves among those long established. Muc-Off and Red Ant both sent us a box full of products to test, and being as my enthusiasm for cleaning scooters is little and infrequent, I thought it…
