it's cool with me too. We can all use a little extra knowledge. That is how we make informed decisions.

Yep. I figure the unit that will work for bike to bike will also work for rider to rider. My wife has her own bike but quite often rides 2 up with me so why not get one that does both proficiently.

Thanx guys, lots of good info regarding my question and some stuff to boot! Scala Q2 looks like it gets the nod. Ride safe guys.

Hi, I bought the Scala Teamset to connect to GPS via bluetooth & also communicate with wife when pillion. The blue tooth works fine, loud & clear at all legal speeds on a loud (perhaps illeagally) FLSTS. However intercom works using FM & this gets serious interferance from the ignition/alternator/electrics. Not looked into ways of fixing this apart from fitting braided HT leads earted to the chassis (which did'nt have much success). Perhaps the Q2 has bluetooth intercom, I don't know, but worth thinking about before buying. Maybe buying another scala bluetooth headset is my solution (assuming my existing model will connect to it & the GPS simultaneously). Anybody got any advice? It would be appreciated.

Check out the Cardo G4's they are great units and have great distance tot he Q2's however Q2's will do the trick as well.

Got mine in from IMC last week. Took my stepson for a quick ride just to get used to them. So far, so good. I was talking to a trucker on the way to work one morning. Chrystal clear and he said it sounded good on his end also.
