Intercom system?


1959grantura

Recommended Posts

Have had a gander through the search and can't find anything recent so thought I would ask here , I run with an aero screen but hate the isolated feeling of having a passenger without being able to communicate with them apart from traffic lights (can have it advantages of course ;0) )

Can anyone recommend a cheap basic intercom that works good enough for journeys on the road and for trackday use ...not fussed about not hearing over 70ish etc as I wouldn't really want to.

Unsure if I want a proper wired into car and lead to connect to helmet or wireless stuck to side of helmet ... Guess for ease the latter?

Any happy buyers of intercoms out there?

Many thanks

Dave

We use two bike helmet Bluetooth intercom headsets, they work really well up to 70ish, then engine and wind noise take over (we have a bike engined westie plus aero screen).

Have a look at

Autocom get my vote. Used them for 8 years in aeroscreened car with helmets on.

Also used them to talk to others who were using walkie talkies on one of our european tours

I looked at the Autocom units before i got the system i have... the autocom system may be better but the price put me off.. £250+ was just not in my budget range..

In the end I based my decision on time to be used against cost... Hence the £65 units won, and I have not been disappointed.

You pay your money and take your choice....

Same train of thought graham just seen some older autocom sets on eBay for similar money even less , not that bothered about them being wireless if there are better options for quality, spares etc .

Just interested really in what other people use

Another vote for Autocom. I use the logic system with Bluetooth for phone and with Kenwood Walkie Talkies for talking to others on route. I have a set of in-ear headphones which I can connect to the headset lead. Sound quality is excellent at all speeds

 

There are a few bargains that come up on eBay if you keep an eye out

I use Scala rider "teamset Pro" + bought a couple of peltor std ear defenders £20 each & mounted the units onto those to make cheap practice headsets. I then have bought a couple of spare mounts/ fitting kits for crash helmets, so now have an interchangeable system, you just unclick the module & swap it over as required.

Does Sat nav & phone + has a jack lead for the ipod.

May I refer the right honourable gentleman to the below...

http://forum.wscc.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic/110407-intercoms/?fromsearch=1

The link I refer to should still work, if not, it's a Bluetooth intercom system for about £60 and works flippin' brilliantly!

Vouch for these, AdamR bought some for track tuition after using Barny's
