Default Factory Headset
I just bought a new 11 Limited. It came with a headset but it will only work with a 3/4 or full face helmet. Is there anything that can be used to modify it to work with a half helmet?

I put them on a half helmet with no problems.The mic bolted to the helmet just like the full or 3/4.I used velcro to hold speakers to ear flaps of the straps and ran the speaker wires down around the back pushed in between the hard shell and lining.they worked great.

works fine on a half helmet as long as you have the ear flaps on
