So I am new to this whole street riding thing, and have some newbie questions pertaining to wireless helmet comm systems. I am looking for feedback on some of the different systems, as searching the internet left me flooded with information and more questions.
1. Is there a system available that is wireless or without electrical tethers to the bike, so that I can talk from helmet to helmet, (like my rear seat passenger), listen to my music, the passenger can listen to their own music (because I can't do country when I am pretending to be Valentino Rossi)?
2. I do not need or want cell phone access, as this is the whole reason I ride, to get away from all the cell phone calls.
3. Is there a system that is available that I can mute the rear passenger, so that when she starts talking about romantic things, I can just shut her off?
4. Do these systems require hard wiring 12V power into the bike? I would like to avoid this if at all possible.
5. I have 2 Arai full face helmets, do the boom mics work well in these helmets, or get in the way of the built in breath shields?
Any input or suggestions with equipment that works well is greatly appreciated. I think a little money spent on a system such as I described would eliminate the cold hands on my bare skin under my riding jacket when she wants to get my attention, while I am dragging a knee through a corner in the Colorado mountains.
