Helmet with headset?
Can anyone reccomend a good 3/4 helmet that a head set can be used with and has the ear pieces ready to take out instead of cutting into the liner? One that won't break the bank money wise too.

J&M does a really nice job. The helmet itself really depends on the shape of your head. Go try on helmets to find what suits you the best then call J & M for a price all done and installed ready to ride.

Maybe you should state your budget first. Breaking the bank for one guy might be chump change for the next guy. But like Tink said, you need to find one that is comfortable on you. Everyones head is shaped a little different.

So, has anyone just cut some holes in the liner for the speakers, and mounted the mic and had good results with it? Hate to buy new headsets when I already have two. I just don't want to ruin a new 3/4 helmet.

You had to drill to install that right? I also have the Nolan n-com but do not have any headsets yet and Nolan sells a set-up that doesn't require drilling IIRC. I'd rather not risk compromising a helmet by drilling into it.

The only helmets that I have put headsets in have all been full face Arai's and Shoei's. And all of them had removable liners and earpieces that did not require any cutting. I don't know for sure, but I think that their 3/4 lids have removable earpieces too.
