Coming up on the 1 year anniversary with my '15 Limited Low & haven't used it yet.

Mostly because I don't like wearing a wired headset. If the bike had Bluetooth like.... oh, say a bottom of the line Hyundai I would use it.

They're nice while riding with a group. I have a modular helmet and the headset speakers sound so clear that I never use the external ones unless I'm riding with my half helmet. The cord doesn't bug me at all unless I forget to unplug it while getting of the bike of course...

Always when group riding. Several times when cruising long distances on the highways

They are only good for bike to bike communication. Other than that they are deemed useless as far as talking to a car or semi. There is no way you could Cary on a smoky and the bandit talk.

Only used a couple times on group rides. Is nice to be able to communicate with other riders, but could live without it.

I attend 7-8 group rides a year. 20 bikes +/- in the group. I host one of them. We use the CB's constantly.

Ditto on group rides. Even when I'm not a blocker or road captain, I like to hear what issues the lead bikes are reporting.
