Headset Guru help wanted.....

[Iowawegian]

When we bought our 05 Venture...a pair of full face helmets with headsets came with it.

I can't do a full face anymore with all the 40 mph winds, 90 plus temperatures, etc.

I have purchased a half helmet that has ear flaps where my earpieces can fit into, but I have no place to velcro stick my mike, so hears my question....

What kind of headset do I need to buy for a halfhelmet and will I also need to buy one for the hubby in order for us to talk together?

Neither one of us know anything about electronics at all.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Half helmets use a boom mic.

Try www.sierra_mc.com and look at the IMC headsets. We love them and use the model that wraps around your head w/boom. Independant of the helmet.

If you are interested in J&M Headsets you can just call them at 1-800-358-0881. They will answer the phone fast and you can just tell them what kind of helmet you have and they will talk you through ALL their options. They are very friendly to deal with.

Ok, so now I know what I'm looking for.....

just want to make sure....the hubby and I will still be able to talk to each other even though he has a whole different brand of head set? Is that correct?

If you are using the intercom that comes on the bike then yes!

Go to http://wingstuff.com/index.php and look at all the recommends here and read the reviews, I bought a JM set I'm happy with it may not be the best on the market.

I had nothing else to compare too just reviews..

Hey Scarylarry,

Can you do me a favor and go to the website and look up item#JMHSICD284HHU and let me know what you think? The reviews look good and it's a staff pick.

Does the price look reasonable?

And

Do I have to purchase an HCPC lower cord to go along with it for the Venture?

I appreciate your opinions as I am treading in water I know nothing about.

Thanks

Deb
