Bluetooth?

[Smokin_Busa]

Has anyone had any experience with a bluetooth system? I want to get something that I can talk on my cell phone when needed, listen to music (I am planning on getting the stilletto 2 sirius player), talk with my girlfriend behind me, and my friends riding with me. I want something mounted in my helmet no earpiece.
Thanks all,
Joe

Cardo Scala Rider Q2 works great for me. It's easy to use, it's small, and has some neat features like a built-in FM radio. Although Cardo told me that they had i-Phone problems, I have had zero issues so far. The customer service for parts and accessories (I had a dead AC adapter) is great. Their tech support was more or less useless (pairing with Garmin Zumo 550). All in all, it's a good unit. My wife and I use it ad a bike-to-bike communication system, and we both like it.

I have that exact setup mounted on my ,07 (and very soon, on my brand spankin '08

).  Here's what I use:

Stiletto 2 w/car dock
Jabra 120s bluetooth adapter (plugged into the car dock)
Chatterbox Gmrs X1 w/Bluetooth

The Chatterbox is the only box that will give you everything you listed in your post, namely bike to bike and intercom capabilities.  Plus, it's a true stereo (2 speaker) setup.  The downside to it is that it is kinda bulky on the helmet.  Other than that, I've loved it.

About a month ago, I went on a ride with a touring group (mainly Goldwings) that were all using CB's.  I used an extension cable plugged into a portable CB and had GMRS, Stereo audio, Bluetooth phone, and CB (audio only) all running at once.  

 With some "engineering" I think I can even get it to transmit via CB, but I'm still working on that.

I have been using a Chatterbox X1 Bluetooth for several months. It works very well. I like that I can use it on either of my bikes. The XB1 and Autocom both wire to one bike. If you only have one bike those are great. If not, get the chatterbox. With the Autocom you will also need to buy a radio for bike to bike.

PLUS!!!  We have a group buy on the Chatterbox!  Check the thread at:

Chatterbox Bluetooth

At 300 bucks, it's the best price I've seen.

+ 1000 no probs with it and my iphone,,,and its so clear ,the wife cant even tell im on the bike when she calls...

I had the Scala-rider original and now I have the Q2. Yes, it does allow bike-to-bike like the chatterbox and it's sooooooo much smaller.

It has the stereo FM, the bluetooth capability to the phone, intercom to passenger and bike-to-bike.

I haven't found a bluetooth adapter for my zune that works yet so I got a batter-powered FM transmitter for it. I xmit Zune to 99.3 then tune Scala to that and bam, I got tunes.
