Default headset without mics?
does anybody make a headset/speakers without a boom mic that plugs into the harley console? I like having speakers in the helmet but I get sick of the mic in the way all the time.

Im not sure of there is a company that just makes speakers, I am sure there is. hen I just want the speakers I take the mic and push it up and to the left, either just inside the helmet or on the outside of it, after awhile you will not notice it is there.

You can buy an adaptor from headphones to Harley from Aerostitch for $20 I think.

I wear a full face and it bugs the crap out of me. I know some probably don't mind but I am not going to get used to it lol.

I just bought whatever the best headset is that J&M sells and simply didn't install the mike. Works BEAUTIFULLY! Like sitting in the living room listening to a stereo.
