Hello all,

I just bought an iPhone 7 with enough memory for all my tunes and want to use Bluetooth ear buds with my half helmet. I normally ride with foam ear plugs, but I'd like to hear some tunes from my phone while it's in the windshield bag.

There's a vast variety of these things out there and I wondered what those of you in the group who wear these things like about yours, what they cost, where you got them, etc.

I see some of them let you answer phone calls, but my main motivation is for music on the road.

Thanks!

 

I have jaybird X2 nice sound and all, but is to large (outside ear side) and not comfortable wear with helmet

 

what about the ones from apple. also id check amazon, there you can read the reviews from people.

 

Consider the LG Tone Pro

I use the Sena unit on my RKC but I have a 3/4 helmet. The set up for a half helmet has a plug for standard headphones/earbuds.

I'm not a big fan of ear buds.

I was going to suggest iron cross. They can install bluetooth in the Harmon Kardon stereo but they only do it for 2006 - 2013. They might make a deal on a newer unit and take yours as trade. I assume your stereo doesn't have an input jack. That's what I use on my limited. Just a short cord from my phone in the windshield bag.

There are also many aftermarket head units that work great that have all the modern features like, XM, Bluetooth, usb,....

Lot's of options. Good luck deciding.

 

I have these and they're fantastic!

For 2014 and later, there's this: http://www.sierra-mc.com/proddetail....SNA-HD14-SMH10, which basically extends the cord connection to a bluetooth device and from there to your bluetooth helmet.

 

BOSE sound sport is a pretty good set but up there in price and has a mic built in for calls. For the price though I would go with a Sena system just more functions for similar money.

Do not think the OP is looking to go that extreme.

 

I bought a Motorola S9 when they first came out for running. They are a little bulky compaired to today, but I lost them for several years in my moving boxes and junk. Recently found them and still charge and work. They don't work so well without the windshield on tho.
