Title: Anyone have experience with this Bluetooth?

Looking for something that I can wear with my helmet. I had a Motorola wrap around that worked great with my Arai, but not with my Shoei. Any feedback would be appreciated.

honestly man if you can rig it up right to answer........Skully Candy Earbud's have an integrated microphone system so you can talk on it, you'd just have to figure out how to answer.


However...........I think answering a phone call while riding is the dumbest idea in the world. I know you have kids, but if your phone rings.........pull over and see who is calling.

Just my $0.02 on it.

Don't be a dumbass. I would use it for music, but I don't want a wire running down to my jacket.

From the picture, it looks like the wire has to run somewhere.


Buy some ear buds and call it a day.

I already have earbuds. Anyone that has actual experience with these have an opinion?

I gave up on headsets and bought a helmet with integrated bluetooth.  There are several options now.

I don't have the $$$ for a new helmet. If I had the money, I would buy another Arai and a new set of motorola wrap arounds.

Ah, ok.  I never found buds that were comfortable and fit under my helmet, which is unfortunate since earbuds perform two tasks simultaneously.

These are the Motorla I was referring to on my earlier posts. I loved them when I used my Arai.

Why not just install a stereo like Goldwings and those big dresser Harley's have?

I had a pair of Shure E2c's and they were fantastic. They stayed in blocked alot of noise and only came off when you took off the helmet. would buy again.  Hmm...be right back.

I have some wired ear phones that work great. I'm looking to find a bluetooth set so that I can put the phone in a water proof pouch and still listen to music.

Again, there is a 15$ option for that.

Why must you be difficult?

Probably not what you're looking for, but I got a dual set of these for $270.

Works outstandingly well.  They just released the earbud clamp, but I'm not sure I'm going to upgrade.  The other option is your favorite set of earbuds and an otterbox for your phone.

That would be really cool if it came with a regular handset for "normal" use. I'm looking for a solution that can be used just about in any situation. The Motorola for example fits the bill except for the issue with the helmet.

That's the setup I have now. The Otter is pretty water proof, but the Florida storms might be too much even for it.

I experienced those on a BMW that was in my garage. It works best when your parked. Seriously over 30 miles an hour you can't hear anything anyway. which is 10mph less than the max speed for listening to the IPod. So I just dont.
