Just wondering if it's legal or not. I've been thinking of getting rid of my quadzilla and going back to the windshield.

 

Going on the subject line I guess I can only answer that "it depends", as for the rest of the original post I really am not familiar with quadzilla nor how that sends you back to the windshield and what any of that has to do with headphones. John

 

I believe the answer for most states is NOT

I can't speak for all states

Just saying that I won't have a stereo when I sell the fairing. And am asking if it's legal to wear headphones while riding. Thanks Goodies

 

most states no, but I have never heard of anyone getting stoppped for it.

 

Looking at the amadirect link, most states do not have restrictions against headphones in a helmet. I wonder if earphones are looked at in the same way.

I wear earplugs on long rides and would love to get a set of fitted earphones. I will watch this thread to see if anyone has any first hand knowledge.

 

Hard to see head phones under a lid? I bet if it is against the law it would be something that was tacked on after you were pulled over for something like speeding or such.

I have some mini speakers or flush speakers like on the old walkmans that I use but not for tunes more for the V1 (radar detector) when I ride the Vmax. I run the wire under my jacket. It's hard to keep that thing below the legal limit so the radar is a must.

I do know a girl who got a $89 ticket at UF in Gainesville for listening to her Ipod with headphones on her bicycle. Now that's harsh. I bet it's the same for a bike.

Got the mini speakers from.....

I have worn a head set under my halfshell in 39 states and never been bothered. I have to admit though, some of your states went by in blink.
