elmicko Posted February 21, 2010 #1 Posted February 21, 2010 OK, I need to find a REALLY good deal on a set headsets for two helmets. The wife thinks it would be a good idea to talk while we're riding. Does anybody know where I can get them cheap? A buddy said he saw some in an ad in Wing World for $69 for two. Of course, he didn't keep the magazine. Help. Mick

Motorcycle Mike Posted February 21, 2010 #3 Posted February 21, 2010 I would need 2 of these, his & hers, correct? Or is that for a pair?
Wanderer Posted February 21, 2010 #4 Posted February 21, 2010 I would need 2 of these, his & hers, correct? Or is that for a pair? Yes 2, and remember you have Eddie to thank for this.
Monty Posted February 21, 2010 #5 Posted February 21, 2010 Wish the half helmet sets were that price. We need to find a pair at a good price. I've never used intercom before. Will be interesting.

You owe me one. ;0) We use a pair of the full face set and they are awesome. Bit of warning though, the mic is quite large and finding a spot for it in the chin bar can be challenging.

Mick IF you are willing to wait a few months I am going to give away my standard J&M headsets when I get my other set of J&M ELITE headsets for my other pair of helmets. Tom
Color01 Posted February 21, 2010 #8 Posted February 21, 2010 I bought a new Harley Davidson set on ebay for 25 Bucks ..and it says HD on it. it works great ..my only wish is a better quality Bass speaker.
Freebird Posted February 21, 2010 #9 Posted February 21, 2010 Anybody who is only looking for intercom capability should be OK with the cheap J&M units. If you are looking for something to listen to music though, I highly recommend the Edsets over anything else I've heard. I've used the top of the line J&Ms, the AirRiders and the cheaper J&Ms and none of them are as good as the Edsets in my opinion.

Color01 Posted February 21, 2010 #11 Posted February 21, 2010 Wish the half helmet sets were that price. . I use a regular Head set on my Half Helmet ..and it works great.
ediddy Posted February 21, 2010 #12 Posted February 21, 2010 Edsets makes an adapter that will allow you to plug in a set of earplugs into your intercom system. The quality of sound is better and you can use them with half helmets.
Guest scarylarry Posted February 21, 2010 #13 Posted February 21, 2010 Wish the half helmet sets were that price. We need to find a pair at a good price. I've never used intercom before. Will be interesting. I just bought a from wing n stuff and use for the first time yesterday, the stereo sounds great and the cb sounds great me and friend talk till he got out of range...I paid 130 I think for this one it will fit in a half helmet great..
ediddy Posted February 21, 2010 #14 Posted February 21, 2010 I forget to mention this. With earplugs you can use them with different helmets. I use them with my half helmet in the summer and also with my 3/4 helmet in the winter.
rumboogy Posted February 21, 2010 #15 Posted February 21, 2010 Here's the adapter for earbuds. http://www.cyclegadgets.com/Products/product.asp?Item=HA Get the one for the Gold Wing and it will work great. I have this one. Wally
BigBoyinMS Posted February 21, 2010 #16 Posted February 21, 2010 Where do you find half helmet ones looked around on the linked sight and didn't see them:think: Here are the best priced that I found for half-helmets. IMC Helmetless Headset $74 each They work well.

jaxson01 Posted February 21, 2010 #18 Posted February 21, 2010 Great price....But are you sure you get two sets?, When I went on web site it looked to me as if you only got 1. Please let me know.
MiCarl Posted February 21, 2010 #19 Posted February 21, 2010 Great price....But are you sure you get two sets?, When I went on web site it looked to me as if you only got 1. Please let me know. They are sold each. You need to order two for two helmets.
aspen60 Posted February 21, 2010 #20 Posted February 21, 2010 For what it's worth Edsets have one for a shorty. I"ve got the scorpian xo100 half helmet and the http://lh6.ggpht.com/_DEAc_0NvMtA/SAyhcCVhYzI/AAAAAAAAB40/omd8BimjJLQ/2008_0410Scorpion-Evo0042.JPGEdsets look like this on it.

I've used the top of the line J&Ms, the AirRiders and the cheaper J&Ms and none of them are as good as the Edsets in my opinion. I bought Edsets for my new helmet last year, liked the thin pieces for the ears, but what I am finding and is irrating is this: They work great for the Intercom and the radio (FM AM), but with ZUMO 550 sounds, espcially XM and directions, have to crank the volume up to max. I did not have to do this with the J&Ms, the cheap set $69 set. But the sound quality with Intercom and AM/FM radio for the EDsets are definitly better. Just wish the EDSets worked better with the Zumo device.
elmicko Posted February 21, 2010 Author #22 Posted February 21, 2010 Thanks for all the help. Got some on the way.
