Well the title says it all. Any brand in particular any of you guys using? experiences? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Saw this one and it looks interesting: http://www.crutchfield.com/p_333SK4000/Parrot-SK40 00.html?tp=139 |

BlueAnt InterPhone all day long. I've used Nady, Chatterbox ans Scala, and the BlueAnt outperforms them all by a long shot...and under $100 each. It's a great phone bluetooth headset, and has an intercom radio as well. When I'm on my XB9S with race pipe and my girlfriend on her Blast with a Vance and Hines pipe (LOUD!), we can effectively communicate up to about 60 mph with no wind noise or engine noise being transmitted. At speeds above that, I just can't get it loud enough to overcome the noise of the pipes (nor would I want it to, because any louder would likely cause hearing damage). Good customer service to boot. I would recommend these things all day long. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N8 2E16875995022 |

Not to sidetrack the thread, but I'm looking for something similar. I don't have a bluetooth headset at all, I'd like to get one I can use in my car like a normal headset or that I can use on my bike in my fullface helmet, both for my phone and to talk to another rider (either on my bike or separate.) Thanks |

Andy...that ear piece physically go in your ear or under the padding of the helmet? |

The earpieces fit in the "holes" of the padding that your ears fit in. I really like my Chatterbox, very loud if you need it to be, and lots of inputs even with bluetooth capability. |

We have several good threads located in the KV about BT headsets http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/384 2/352470.html http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/384 2/311498.html Before I can give an further guidance, I need to know exactly what you want a BT headset for. 1) Phone calls 2) Music 3) Navigation 4) Intercom (rider/passenger) 5) Short range com (bike to bike) |

Well, actually I will only use it for music and phone. I don't currently use or plan to use a navigation system. Also I ride alone most of the time (or with the wife). |
