I have been thinking of purchasing an apple watch so I can monitor calls and texts while riding my motorcycle. I don't want to interact, but just see who the notification is from so I can decide if I should pull over or not. Are there apple watch owners that use the watch under these conditions? Does it do the job? I'm thinking the sport model will be what I need.

I read on another thread that the rider could not discern the taptic vibration on their watch. You might want to search the posts.

As a non-motorcyclist, I can tell you that the vibration is very slight, and you might miss it if in a dynamic and noisy environment.

Ah, here's the other thread...

Thanks mate.I'll check that out.

Yep, I'm that rider. It's really difficult to distinguish the taps with all the handlebar vibration, but what has happened a few times is that my phong has rung (in my front pocket) and I've felt that - prompting me to check the watch quick to see who's calling. So all's well that ends well, I suppose.
