ok. so while i was waiting for a response from sena, i found out that i was using the wrong pairing method to get the sena to pair up with my garmin. I was using the standard phone pairing method and needed to use the multipoint gps method!!
Now all is right with the world.
for those having trouble,(probably just me), make sure you are using the correct pairing method. Here's what i found...

Pairing mode is sometimes called discovery mode.
Standard Phone pairing – Hold down the Phone button for 5 seconds until both red and blue starts to flash rapidly.
This will pair to both HFP and A2DP profile of the phone. This means you can make calls and listen to music from your phone.
Multipoint GPS – Hold down the Jog Dial for 5 seconds until the red LED starts to flash rapidly. Within 2 seconds tap the Phone button then the LED turns to flashing BLUE. You will hear it say “Multipoint pairing”.
Multipoint pairing is used when you already have a mobile phone paired to your SMH10 and you want to add a GPS or the SR10.
This mode pairs to the HFP profile.
Selective pairing A2DP – Hold down the Phone button for 5 seconds until both Red and Blue LED starts to flash rapidly. Within 2 seconds tap the Jog Dial, the Red LED flashes rapidly. It will say “Medial selective pairing”.
Used for iPod touch or Bluetooth audio systems.
This mode only pairs to the A2DP profile.
Selective pairing HFP – Hold down the Phone button for 5 seconds until both Red and Blue LED starts to flash rapidly. Within 2 seconds tap the Phone button again. The Blue LED will flash rapidly. It will say “Phone selective pairing”.
This mode only pairs to the HFP Profile.
Intercom - Turn on both units. Press and hold the Jog dial on both units until the RED LED flashes red. Then tap the Jog dial on one of the unit to start the pairing process. When done, both units will flash a double Blue LED and will be in intercom mode.
