Headset Issues
I bought IMC Moto headsets fro my JM radio. I have guys we ride with tell me they sound just as good as their JM headsets for half the cost, so I am not sold on the JM's. I have listened to theirs and cannot tell the difference.

Wear a 1/2 helmet so the headset that came with my bike won't work for me.What I'm using is a set of $30.00 ear buds that sound great + attenuate a great deal of road and engine noise.I'm a solo rider so the intercom isn't a factor.

You don't say what type of helmet you wear, but I have had better luck hearing my stereo thru the headset if I wear earplugs. I know that doesn't seem right, but if you wear a 3/4 or full face helmet, the earplugs will mask out the wind noise but you will still be able to hear the stereo and intercom. Earplugs are relatively inexpensive and maybe worth a try before spending $$$ for premium headsets.

I purchased everything from Honda Of Russellville. When you order call and ask for Jonathan in the Internet Dept, he handles their ebay site and is the only way you will get the pricing.
J&M Elite is the only way to go. Always order for the flip helmet with the HD lower cord. You will not be disapointed. Not only what you hear but the clarity of your voice is also better.

Foam ear plugs. Available at most any drug store, W-mart, etc. I know, doesn't make sense but you really can hear better with ear plugs in your ears. They filter out wind/road noise but you can still hear your stereo and intercom. If you are a long-distance rider, ear plugs are a must. You will notice you are less tired after a long ride, too.
