BIKE TO BIKE

[Kassofcmb]

OK I am huge into fooling with stuff I just shouldn't!
Like I said in a different post, A friend and I are going on a trip next week and I figured communication would be nice. So I priced one of those Chatterboxes. HOLY $300!

I bought some cobra FRS/GMRS 2 way radio's from best buy for 29.99 and did this!

How's the wind noise factor with the mic? And can you hear the speaker pretty well? I assume you just stuffed the speaker under the padding? Did you do the same for the mic?

 

[Kassofcmb]

well I pit the mic taped to insider helmet kinda @ the corner of my mouth. Speaker under pad. U can hear the speaker loud and clear. Get a little wind noise. more with shield up less down!

[Kassofcmb]
