Default Headphones or Helmet?
Do you have to have at least a 3/4 helmet to be able to have headphones/ microphones to utilize the Intercom?&nbsp\\; I know, I've already heard all the jokes about keeping the wife quiet, etc.&nbsp\\; We both ride with 1/2 helmets and would rather not go with 3/4 or full face.

No, you can attach them to half shell helmits and they work fine. Harley has a set of pouches that slip up ioto the side of the helmit and you put the head phones in the pouches.

If its hot 95* outside, Nolan has the N102 Helment that is a modular helment and they have a real good blue tooth to work with it.
