Zumo/phone interface
If you would like to connect hands free phone/zumo, here is a sweet deal

No mounting of switches, uses bluetooth and the bikes audio system. And here is the absolute best part only $65. Check it out.

Zumo 550 / Bluetooth / Harley Helmet / Interface
I have been wanting a quality interface to connect the Zumo 550 Bluetooth with my stock Harley headset.
Every now and then something comes around that truly works as described.
I would like to share my experience with you about such a product.
I removed the prior interface that I was using and installed the HD BLUETOOTH BOMM from http://home.comcast.net/~jbissonette1/site/
It arrived within two days of ordering.
SIDE NOTE:
Now I know why they call it a BOMM...I think it looks like a miniature pipe bomb. (GRIN)
Instructions:
http://home.comcast.net/~jbissonette...structions.doc
Installation:
It was a simple installation. Just connect the two wires and the 2.5mm plug that are attached to the BOMM.
Installation Time:
It took me less than 15 minutes.
My Configuration:
Zumo 550, iPhone, stock HD center console and stock HD headset.
The actual device is fairly small and in my case easily fit with no challenges.
In the picture above you can see how small it is in comparison to the 2.5 mm plug.
No switches, no buzzing, no humming, no interference.
Just plain 'ole good clean sound for the caller and receiver.
IMHO - It works GREAT!
Folks that I speak to on the phone don't even know I'm on the bike.
This thing is amazing, inexpensive, crystal clear and easy to install.

I'm thinking about getting this for my Ultra. I see that you need to splice a few wires which isn't a problem. The thing I'm looking at is that it says bluetooth. It looks like it is all hard wired. Does it work as good as you say? Just wondering.
Thanks

My iPhone is in my pocket but connected to Zumo by BT. Also my Scala Q2 is connected to Zumo by BT. My iPhone interface is in the Zumo. Everything works perfectly. What more do I get with that 60 bucks? My voice to the headset? I'm not that old that I don't know what I'm speaking ;-)
Okay, my wife disagree...

There is a new version that allows the passenger to talk on the phone too!
My phone is in my saddlebag or in my RG glovebox with cig charger to the phone.
