Cell Phone Blue Tooth

#1 Post by RhadamYgg » Thu Apr 08, 2010 4:07 pm

Hey Everyone,
I do a lot of traveling on my bike behind my wife in her minivan. But we can't communicate. So, I need two things.

1) A bluetooth (or wired to G1) headset so I can communicate
2) A tank bag with a clear pocket on top, but it can't just be a "map pocket". I want to put my cell phone in it and a GPS, so a thin map pocket won't do the trick.

Thanks,
RhadamYgg / Skydiver / Motorbike Rider / Mountain Climber

I'm waiting for the new Scala and Sena reviews to come in from Web-Bike world. They did an initial write up and then sent the units out on the road with some critics.

I may be stupid, but I don't see how those could be used with a full face helmet...

Thanks, man.

I had wondered about that a bit as well. My wife found a shark unit for cheap that I might get but I had to look at the pictures for a while to figure it out. And not having one (ever) doesn't help.

There are two spaces over the ears of my helmet - depressions - in the foam. So, the little speaker unit thingies go in there. The microphone piece is easier - I have velcro on the chin bar on my HJC CL-15. Can't say that I really want to kiss a hard plastic thing on impact, but I don't know how much my chin would really move in an impact since my head is fairly firmly set in the helmet.

I meant, the unit linked into this thread wouldn't fit with a full face since the buttons on the earpieace... So there is actually is communication systems for full face helmets ?

Oh yeah... That big boom with the buttons wouldn't work on a full face. I've seen some units with a separate little module with the buttons.

I re-read everyones comments and wasn't entirely sure if you were talking about the items I was linking too or not. If anyone was here is the report and they are using an Arai Full Face Helmet for one of the models

Brackstone - that one is very clear how it would work.

I may get this But even with the pics I'm not sure if it is the right thing. It does't say "for full face helmets"
