AidanPlace Posted June 8, 2013 Posted June 8, 2013 We have an autocom in the umbrella stand, unbeatable imho. Practice headsets for tootling. in helmet for longer jaunts. linked to a Kenwood 2 way for "car to car" with push to talk. Can plug the phone in too, but that would mean i'm contactable :-) so haven't bothered. works at any speed up to the legal limit (and I would imagine much more Ahem) I'm aeroscreened Quote
Andy Banks Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 I've done a bit more research and found a few retrofit solutions like the Nolan kit or Chatterbox, Autocom, Cardo, Interphone... All have their pros and cons and prices range from £25 to £250! However, I "think" I'm taken with VCAN 210 Helmet (http://www.vcansports.com/blinc.html). Anyone used one? Quote

Norman Verona Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 HM never needed an intercom when she travelled part way to Le Mans every year. Waving a hand in front of my face meant "slow down" Pointing to her crutch meant "I need a loo" Making the sign of one hand being a saucer and the other hold a delicate porcelain cup handle complete with the pinkie sticking out meant "I need coffee" Nothing else was needed. By the way, part way means she would blag a lift with anyone who had a screen and doors at Portsmouth. Quote
Andy Banks Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 Main useage will be for SatNav and phone. Just reading up on some reviews but so far looking good... Quote
Norman Verona Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 I found I didn't need either. Only used my SatNav once and that was to find an upholsterer in a maze of back streets in Rennes. Phone stayed in pocket. If HM was with me I wasn't bothered about anyone else ringing me. Quote
