Ok,
I talked to Bill Morphy who builds the Mic-mutes. He says I have microphonics!!!!
This is not life threatning , nor will I need antibiotics.
But I'm P.O.'d nonetheless.
This is a follow up thread to the mic-mute one I did a couple days ago.
I did a test in the garage. Turn the key to accessory, leave motor off, turned on the stereo, turned down the sound of the music audio to zero. Turned the IC up to 20 with helmet plugged in and then toggled the PTT. The mic would mute but there was still a ton of white noise (background noise, static, whatever you want to call it)
Would those of you with mic-mutes try this test and tell me if you have this same noise. I'm about ready to get ahold of Yamaha mothership if my case is unique and ask about warranty replacement.
Your help with this test would be greatly appreciated.
Look forward to your input.
P.S. if your interested......look up "microphonics" under google or more bike specific to a "goldwing microphonics" search.
Thanks for your input.
Jim
