Default Helmet speakers

I have a 2011 Streetglide and Nolan 104 FF helmet. I want to add helmet speakers only to listen to my radio. Is there a "audio out plug" on the back of the radio or do I have to buy something else. I don't want a mic or bluetooth.

I can't answer your question but isn't that distracting--especially if someone is blowing their horn at you to warn you of something.

I think kryinggame is concerned for your safety. It would be like wearing a pair of headphones while driving your car. You might not hear someone coming up beside you or blowing their horn in an intersection. I have not tried it so I'm not sure how isolated it makes you.

there is no audio out on the back of the radio to answer your question.

I have only used them once but don't find them distracting because you do still hear ambient noise just fine.

I called J&M and they told me I would have to send my helmet to them to put speakers in. That was the end of that conversation. But thanks anyway.

How in the world would I know if it was distracting if I don't have it yet. And whats with all the hostility. Does it make you feel better to hide behind a computer screen and write your dribble.
