The wife and I have two Street Glides, and after she yelled at me three or four times during this weekends trips to Biketoberfest, I decided to invest in some communication equipment. After doing the research on the forum on Saturday evening, we ran back up to the Speedway this morning, and purchased the SCALA RIDER Q2 Bike to Bike set from Cruisin' Gear.
They didn't have it in stock, so Tim was nice enough to pick up the shipping costs and send it to me during the next week.
I'll let you guys know the first hand results when they arrive in the net 5-7 business days.
BTW...Tim gave me instructions on how to make it work on half helmets, you just need to sew a little piece of material in the ear flap to allow the earphones to mount.
Just one problem we have found and that is the charge time. On a full days ride you will have five hours of talk and another three of four hours of yelling again!
I'm using BlueAnts Interphone and they have worked great so far. Can comm with the passanger and other bike's with in range (490 '). Also will answer you Cell phone...

You might want to talk to Scala about that. My "team rider" setup will last more than 12 hours, & a friend that just used his new Q2 set on the way to Biketoberfest got better than 8 hours & his were still working strong when they got here.
+ ride for the Scala Q2, use them with my group of riders and the are great. helps keep the group together. no issue with Battery time we ride 5 to 8 hours every Sunday and have never had an issue.
