Beth and I both have J+M headsets for our half helmets. I forget the model #, but they install by slipping them in between the liner and the shell of the helmet. This year we installed the mic-mutes, and I love them. We have the show krome windshield on the bike, so Beth experiences quite a bit of buffeting and wind noise. The speakers cover our ears very well, and we both experience some heat issues and are generally not happy with the speaker quality. So, to get to my question... Can I adapt a set of ear buds to replace the speakers? If so...how do I do it? By doing so, we can rid ourselves of the heat issue in the warm weather...(we really noticed it on our last vacation ride to Texas), and improve the sound quality at the same time. I'm a novice at this type of retro fitting...so some very plain instructions would really be appreciated. Thanks in advance. gunk:hurts:

Wind Noise in Headsets from Microphone
Guest posted a topic in Royal Star and Royal Star Tour Deluxe Tech Talk
I have a 2000 Royal Star Venture Millenium model. I bought some basic J+M headset units advertised as fitting the bike's factory audio sytem but the mic's are always "on" so I get an awful lot of wind noise transmitting into our ear pieces via the microphones. I even hear my own voice in my earpieces when I talk to the passenger. The "push to talk" does not seem to work either (or is that just for the CB?). DO you guys get this happening with the original factory units? J+M sells another attachment for about $150 each to get ride of the noise (basically an extra "push to talk" it seems). Ugh, they seem to drain you of $$$ Also I bought a spare Yamaha (aka J+M) unit on eBay but the microphone does not seem to work. The part is dated 2004 and part number is STR-4XY89-30-KT so I wonder if it's just a year compatability issue or if it's broken. The wind noise thing is my real issue tho' Please advise... Thanks, PKslice
