With a woman in back, you have no chocie but to leave the radio off, or your clutch hand will go dumb turning it up and down every 5 seconds when they strart yacking.
...some guys may want to crank it up.....and leave it there!

To mrmagloo

All the current "Baggers" that have OEM intercom and the HK head unit will attenuate (lower) the radio volume when the VOX or you manually, by using the "ptt", engage the intercom.  Once your done yacking, or you release the "ptt", the audio volume comes back to it's set level. Nice thing is, too, you can adjust the audio volume, intercom volume and VOX sensetivity separately.  BSR can do the same and also has separate ptt.  SWEET!!!  You may want to head for an HD dealer and check out the new upgrades. :2vrolijk_21:

I have a 'current' bagger, and have all of that stuff, but you got to be wearing them for it to work!  Without the helmets and/or the headsets, you are kind of stuck.

Yeah, I've tried the ignore feature before, and after a couple of unanswered news-flashes, I got the finger tap to the back. When that didn't work, I got the palm to the back of the head. I learned pretty quickly, that the fancy ignore feature sounds great in theory, but is more trouble than it's worth in real world practice.

Virginia requires "head plastic" for both rider and BSR (as well as MD, DC and WV), so I just modified the helmet to mount the OEM headset speakers flush behind the strap-flaps.  Works great, no pressure on your ears and temple.  Nice stereo sound field. too.

Please look back to the "ignore feature" side effects, ie finger poking, etc. The only thing that works reliably is the trick where you leave them at home!

I put the iPod on my 2010 FLHXSE and listen to it 90% of the time.  Plenty of Motley Crue, Poison, Bullet Boys, Kix, Ratt and others compete with my Vance & Hines high output slip ons  The Hawg Wired speakers and amp make it an even competition :2vrolijk_21:
