Default Bluetooth Helmet

A few days ago a friend og mine brought by a Full Face Bluetooth Helmet to show me as I would love to take some rides during the day but need to be in phone caontact. The helmet worked great except I am not a big fan of full face helmets.

Does anyone know what else is out there in the way of Bluetooth Helmets, preferably not full face?

Check J&M, much better quality than the HD stuff which is built by unknown Corp. J&M has configs for open face helmets too.

Look into Scala Rider bluetooth. I use the "Rider" set for bluetooth to my Zumo GPS & phone, & intercom with my wife. The new "Q2" system will even work bike to bike.

They are called communication pouch and you will find them in the motorclothes section. They are something like $24 for a set.

+1 on the Cardo Scala Rider Q2 system. My wife and I love them. We got 11 hours of use out of them 2 weeks ago on a ride. They power down to standby to conserve battery when not talking. They are suppossed to have a range of 1640 feet. I know my wife can get out of sight behind me and I can still hear her. They also connect to your phone if so desired.

Unfortunately this new Harley unit is not compatible with the Harley Stereo.

You can connect to bluetooth devices, but will not be able to hear the Harley stereo, intercom, Etc... through the headphones.

Until Harley comes out with a bluetooth interface for the stock HK stereos you are out of luck.

These are nothing more than Harley branded (I forget the company that makes these) rider sets.

Its like the Harley Roadtek, just a relabled Zumo and $$$ added for the Harley logo.

Why buy a new helmet if you like what you got check out the Cardo scala units they work great, been on the highway doing 70 MPH and person on the phone did not even know I was on a motorcycle. Don't for get you get 10% off with HF10 coupon as well as free shipping.

http://shop.techncyclegear.com/produ...4&productId=44

If you do a lot of two up there is the Multi set as well, also if your buddy's get them as well you have bike to bike communication with two other Cardos as well as GPS direction if your GPS is Bluetooth capable.

Let me know if you have any questions.
