Vanantwerp Posted July 19, 2009 Share #1 Posted July 19, 2009 Would like to know if anybody has these headsets? Tried to make my own out of plain headsets for phones or pc. But could not get the mic to work. Speakers worked fine but could only get a feedback sound on the intercom part if turned up to much. The ones I bought was a little tight with my half helmet on. Would like know if these fit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like know if these fit? I have them and like them very much. Sound is great. I find that when I wear them for about 3 or 4 hours they do start to make my ears hurt a little.

Boomer Posted July 20, 2009 Share #4 Posted July 20, 2009 I have 2 sets and like them ok, but I would strongly suggest you also invest in some Mic Mutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vanantwerp Posted July 21, 2009 Author Share #6 Posted July 21, 2009 Thankyou for the replies. Never had headsets before and wanted to try some that was cheaper to start with. Dont like wearing a helmet all the time. Was thinking these might work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanantwerp Posted August 1, 2009 Author Share #7 Posted August 1, 2009 After days of trying different pinouts on the bike. I finally search the web to find out that cell or pc headset use condensor mics not dynamic mics. So I went to sierra's website and found the replacement mics for the helmetless headsets was the dynamic mics and pluged in the same way. Got the mics in wired up the 5 pin din to the manual but didnt work. thought ok wasted another 20 bucks might as will just buy them. But got to looking at the pinouts. For hack on it wired it backwards and they worked.Saved about 50 bucks and got lightweight headsets that we can wear with or without helmets. Thankyou for your replies. Really like this site and learned alot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterbug Posted August 1, 2009 Share #8 Posted August 1, 2009 I have two sets of them and so far they work ok but we both have a problem keeping them on the right ear as they want to fall off witch doesnt work very well when you are ridding the bike.
