I have this for my wife's helmet to link to my SMH10 system for intercom use exclusively. I can hear her clearly, but she reports that at higher speeds she has a hard time hearing me.
I notice in the SMH 10 earpiece that there seems to be an open microphone background noise. I can hear traffic, engine noise and such in my ear speakers. Not to distracting, but reminds me that the head set are in the intercom mode.
I suspect the noise cancelling function of the SMH10 effects the volume output to the SMH 5. At around town speeds, there is no difficulty and sound clarity is great.

Will the SMH-5 be able to pair with the SMH-10?
Or will it have to wait until the 10 is upgraded to Bluetooth 3.0?
I have made the connection seamlessly from the SMH5 to the SMH10, Very easy process. My SMH 10 has been upgraded to the Bluetooth 3.0

I have a Harley Road Glide Ultra, it doesn't look like this product would connect into my bike intercom for use with the CB, or could it?
Sena SMH-10 Bluetooth Headset Dual Pack Version 2.0
If your CB is integrated to the bike this might be a problem, I am using the SR 10- with my SMH 10 and have successfully matched up the my CB radio. I started with a Radio Shack Walkie Talkie that I discovered generated RF interference when the radio was keyed in to the transmission mode. After working through the issues I purchased and Midland 75-822 walkie talkie that has a mobile adapter that mounts where the battery would be installed. This provided a power interface and a pigtail wire for the Antenna using the SO-239 connector. Once the antenna lead was isolated from the point where the PTT wire and speaker output cable were inserted the interference went away. I am using the ICOM cable from SENA for the interface for both radios.
