Chat With Passenger

Hello!

I have a2018 Street Glide Special. My wife is going to start riding with me more (I hope)! I would like to be able to talk with her without turning my head.

What do you guys suggest?

Thanks,

P

Just nod your head up and down a lot and agree

We use the Sena SMH5 headset, they are economical, you can share music if you want. I have the old set not the new but those will last a full day almost with just an open mic for conversation.

I use the wired set. Cheaper than the Bluetooth and works just fine.

This and yell. That's what I do. Eventually it will become tiresome, and you won't have to talk or listen.

Doesn't the SGS have the BoomAudfio system? If so, I'd go with the Harley wired intercom thru that system. Admittedly, I hated being hardwired to the bike when Bluetooth is so common and state-of-the-art. However, unlike a BT device which must be recharged and/or is susceptible to running out of power, a hardwired system is always ready to go. If you choose to go wireless, there is nothing wrong with any of the Sena or Cardio [sp?] systems. Bilt even makes helmets with integrated BT systems [I believe they are now Sena systems]. Of course, you will need 2 compatible helmets.
