Bluetooth Headset Recommendation

[tourman]

I'm starting to look at a bluetooth headset for my 2005 wing. I plan to buy a Garmin Zumo gps.
I just want the headset to hear the gps instructions.
I wear a half & full face helmet.

I doubt there is one. I have yet to see one that is reasonably priced.

If you already have a wired headset, I'd go this route:
/Store/Goldwing ... -Input.asp
In fact, I already have. I works very well and is reasonably priced.

Get a Sena SMH-10, it's a couple generations back and the prices are coming down quite a bit. It's more than enough for listening to your GPS and/or pairing with your phone for calls and "OK Google"-ing.

Zumo I'm looking at doesn't have a audio out jack

If you are comfortable with soldering, you can add one.
I've added wire and connectors to several Nuvi's.

-- Do you ride alone, or with a passenger?

-- Do you regularly ride with other riders?

-- Do you regularly interact with any of the audio system already built into the bike?

-- Does your bike have *and* do you use the CB radio accessory with the bike?

There's some helpful insight with the answers to those questions that could also help

1 Ride alone
2 ride by myself
3 don't listen to the radio very often
4 no cb

Graphically, you want to do this...eliminate the bike completely (well...you'd still have the built-in speakers to listen to all of this...) and life becomes a bit less complex:



The GPS you're looking at needs to have the ability to send commands to your headset via Bluetooth signal directly.

Yes, i realize that

I have a Zumo 390 which does have the jack, it also has tpms capability.

I bought a BT-S2 on eBay for less then $50. Has the features most of the high end units. Sound is loud and very clear and no backup noises when I’m talking. Can’t beat it for $50. If you go on YouTube there are many reviews on a number of units on the market to help you make your decision.
