I'm looking for user advice on how to communicate from one helmet to another wirelessly, in order to speak with my pillion rider while en route.
Thanks

NADY Systems Inc. makes several kinds of Intercom systems. Some with radios and wires some wireless.
JP Cycle carries them and JC Whitney. There are all kinds of electronics places to Google too.
Where's my $6 million??

Do you really want that whine in your ears? I thought I did and tried the HJC-50. It was a wired one and a POS too. Spend the bucks and purchase a decent one. The one you'll have to buy will also be bike to bike as well. Hum for the 4 bills you could buy a lot of farkles.

I spent some time here http://www.webbikeworld.com/motorcycle-intercoms/It seems no one has it quite right yet. Some reviewers didn't like the expensive ones either. If I drop 4 or 5 hundred and it isn't ultra perfect in every way for that much dough, It's going into the swamp. Guess we'll stick with HNHB - Holler N Holler Back

Which begs the question: WHY? Why would you want to communicate with anyone en route? Do it when you stop at lights or wherever and just enjoy the bloody ride!!!  *ahem* Sorry, I really hate lid-to-lid comms; to me, riding is escaping, and that extends even to the person with their legs wrapped around me. Not that I carry pillions. Hey! I bought the Speedie for a reason!!!

Get you a pen on a string and a pad .  Apply savings to more crutial things for the bike . Yes , good idea .    Those things are a waste of $$ , gotta pay 500 + for a good one , that's a lot of chrome . Also truck drivers won't intercept transmission and aggravate you ( that's fun , I do it ).
