Default rider to passenger intercom that doesn't require helmets

and don't answer shouting works, because my wife hates it when I shout back at her.
Does anyone make anything that doesn't need helmets?

Harley has this but you'd still an intercom to talk to each other.
And StarCom1 has one also (the one on the far right) but again it needs to be used with their intercom unit.

My experience with those type of units that use VOX is that if your pipes are even remotely loud it sets off the mic.

I got something like that off ebay, just before the wife fell ill, haven't had a chance to try it though, but for 13 bucks, if it doesn't work, throw it away or give it to the kids to play with.

that's what I was thinking. and all you'd have to do is fashion an ear hook of some sort.
If it didn't work well, I'd just slip it on my wife at night and fill her head with all sorts of subliminal ideas

I use the ICM Moto all the time without a helmet. I have an Ultra and use the VOX. If the pipes get to loud or to much wind just adjust the VOX sensitivity. Usually hit the VOX - one bump and that takes care of it. They work great w/o a helmet. Havn't used my HD headsets on my 3/4 helmets in over 3 years.
