[QUOTE="blufjr, post: 941774, member: 737"] Passport and Escorts are the same mfr as well as the Bell. I have an Escort Passport 8500 X-50 but it only works on Lazer, and X bands now. I use a Bell X-65 on the bike and it work excellent. Would buy another Bell first. First Lesson: you can drop your speed maybe 5-10 mph upon notification from the unit before falling into the zone. If the cop will let you go doing 10 over, you better not be doing anymore than 15 over and paying attention. If you are doing 25 over, you will get stopped and ticketed for at least 15 but most likely 20 over. So, lesson one is to use you head and pay attention if you are speeding, the same as if you didn' t have the radar detector. Lesson 2: Read lesson one again. Now if you are like me and you are not intentionally speeding, so you are not paying attention, and the radar detector goes off and you look down to see that you are going 10-20 over, you will learn to automatically brake first then look. This has saved me many times and that is why I support them. [/QUOTE]
