Hi,
Can anyone recommend a rider to pillion/bike to bike bluetooth headset for around £100-£120?
Cheers

why would you want your passenger to keep telling you slow down all the time????

i have been looking into this of recent, and all the reviews for the bluetooth sets nearly all say that they are more hastle than its worth. I would suggest to get a decent wired set, i have been very lucky to be able to purchase a autocom kit 2nd hand from a very kind orger, was delivered today, and i am over the moon with it. if you look around (flebay) you should be able to find autocom kits for around £100 and you wont have the issues with it that you will with the bluetooth, also it will be a lot more versatile as you could plug i pods, sat navs, etc into it.
That is my suggestion.

look at the scala range especially the g4 power set. its expensive but you can find good deals on "the bay". the q2 or something like that also seems very good value for money. my mate has a g4 set and he took a wrong turn off a motorway junction and was still able to communicate with the other rider.
I always wondered, just in case you get out of range, can't you just use the cell phone? This is why I'm leaning more towards the Q2 rather the G4. Watching this space with interest!

is this because of the price max? i found the g4 set for 240 i think which is a great price.

£240 is more than I want to spend I've found-

Not that I know how to use it or what it is capable of doing really...

Yup, wrapped in some rags to obviously protect it under there. Someone remind me and I'll dig it out of my filing cabinet in the garage and post a pic.
