With the 60X, SENA introduces its first motorcycle intercom with a joystick and customisable buttons.
Positioned at the very top of the range, the 60X combines this new ergonomic approach with Mesh 3.0, Wave Intercom, Sound by Bose, Qi wireless charging, a limited lifetime warranty and Slim Design. A concentrated dose of premium features, designed to make communication feel more natural.
On A Motorcycle, There Is No Time To Hesitate
A hazard to point out to your passenger or the group, music to turn down on a twisty section, an important call to manage without taking your eyes off the road: on a motorcycle, certain controls need to be accessible without fumbling.

With the 60X, SENA introduces joystick control to its intercom range for the first time, combined with two customisable buttons. The joystick is designed to be easy to locate by touch and operate with gloves, without distracting the rider from the road. The two customisable buttons reinforce this approach: each rider can assign the functions they use most often, according to their riding habits.
“I come from the world of technology, and I also ride motorcycles. On the road, you don’t always have time to look for a control, especially when wearing gloves. With the 60X, we wanted the most useful functions to fall more naturally to hand. For us, a premium intercom should not only offer more possibilities: it should make them easy to use, exactly when they are needed.” Tae Kim, CEO and Founder of SENA
Keeping The Ride Connected With Mesh 3.0 & Wave
On a ride, a group never stays perfectly compact from start to finish. A traffic light separates two motorcycles, an overtake opens up a gap, a faster section stretches out the line, then everyone comes back together. With Mesh 3.0 and Wave Intercom, the 60X keeps the conversation open in those moments: when the bikes are close together, when they spread out, or when the distance exceeds simple direct range and Wave takes over with its unlimited range.
Mesh? Wave? The rider does not have to think about the protocol working in the background. They talk, they listen, they keep the thread of the ride going. That is the role of a high-end SENA intercom: maintaining the connection without making the technology get in the way.
Slim Design Enters Sena’s Premium Range
Following SPIDER X Slim, the 60X brings Slim Design into SENA’s premium range. The approach is aesthetic: a slimmer, more discreet module that better complements the line of the helmet.
Slim Design also addresses a very practical constraint on a motorcycle: limiting the added bulk on the helmet. With its slimmer profile, the 60X is designed to reduce wind resistance and better follow the shape of the shell, without compromising on the controls or functions expected from a premium intercom.
Sound By Bose: Effortless Sound
Wind, engine noise, outside noise: on a motorcycle, listening conditions are nothing like a conventional hi-fi environment. With SoundDesign tuning and the WaveForm audio engine, Sound by Bose adapts the 60X’s audio performance to this reality, with fuller bass and a more stable sound, even at higher speeds. The aim: to maintain a clean, rich and intelligible sound without having to turn the volume up unnecessarily.
Wireless Charging, One Less Constraint
With Qi wireless charging, the 60X can simply be placed on a compatible charger at home, in the garage or on the move. No more systematically searching for the right cable before heading out for a ride.
This detail neatly sums up the 60X approach: premium quality is not measured only by the technologies built in, but also by the small everyday constraints it makes disappear.
A Premium Product Designed To Last
The SENA 60X also benefits from SENA’s limited lifetime warranty, which accompanies the brand’s new generation of intercoms, according to the terms and conditions defined by SENA: sena.com/en-eu/limited-lifetime-warranty
A premium intercom is not simply a more complete product. It is also a piece of equipment riders need to be able to rely on for the long term, ride after ride. This warranty places the 60X firmly within that logic of durability.
