Its that time of year again - Best new radar detector?
What do you guys think the best radar detector is? I know that a year or so ago, everyoen still loved the valentine 1, but every review I read about them puts the latest passport/bell ahead of the V1. I just put a Saeng mount on the bike... what should I load it up wiht?

Valentine - don't leave home without it. It has saved my ass more times than I like to admit. While I'm cruising around town and the Valentine goes off, it tells me how many signals are there. The cops have gotten smarter..... they sit in places that commonly cause detectors to go off anyway. A regular detector just goes "beep"... mine goes "beep" and shows 2 signals - one more than is normally there. RUT-ROH. Ticket averted.
Whatever detector you go with (Valentine!!!! Valentine!!!) get a radar screamer. Slug was riding 2 or 3 bikes back from me in a pack and heard it sing out just fine at well over 100.
Get a Valentine - 'nuff said.

If you love your bike, set it free. If it comes back to you....you probably highsided.

Everyone seems to LOVE the Valentine on this board - but why does it do so poorly in all the comparisons that I see? Maybe they are all sponsered by competitor's products? Is the Valentine that good? Many places that I researched seemed to think the top passport/bell was better?? Whats up with all this??
