rreiber Posted January 10, 2012 Share #1 Posted January 10, 2012 Is there an adaptor for converting the 5-pin audio connector (on gas tank of my 2008 RSV) to a common 1/8" mini-jack for plugging in a set of common earphones? Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted January 10, 2012 Share #2 Posted January 10, 2012 Yes there is. Edsets makes one and you can also find some lower prices simple adapters on Ebay. http://www.edsets.com/product_details.php?category_id=62&item_id=161 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djh3 Posted January 31, 2012 Share #9 Posted January 31, 2012 OK so I was having my mornig coffee and got to thinking about using ear buds with my shorty helmet that I dont have the intercom rig on. I remembered this post. Then I remembered something about the Buddy Rich cable deal. So I have a 2 part question. 1: why wouldnt this type of set up work (especially if wired in during a Buddy Rich cable mod) 2: Could you run a second 1/8 to the mic "input" side and then plug into your GPS with running it thru the Aux side. Would that render the intercomm inop? Heres a pic I got off a Goldwing site of the wiring. If nothing else it looks like a plan if you are thinking about running earbuds. And alot less the $50. http://www.rattlebars.com/chetswing/headset01.jpg PS I dont have a clue what a ceiling staple is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djh3 Posted December 26, 2012 Share #11 Posted December 26, 2012 I have been thinking more about this "aux ear bud" jack lately. I see now that the pics and stuff I posted may take a little more doing for our bikes. Ours dont use the same type connector. They use instead a sealed round connector. If you knew what kind of connector was used like for the Buddy Rich deal you could build a Y cable and make one. they almost look like and old PS1 or AT cable or something like that for a keyboard. I dont have enough guts to cut into the rubber shielding to get at the wires and access them that way. I was thinking of running the ear buds along with the headset on the helmet. Otherwise I would just get the plug in 1/8" adapter thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djh3 Posted December 26, 2012 Share #12 Posted December 26, 2012 Can anyone tell me what 5 pin DIN connector plugs into the headset plug. I have a couple of keyboard plugs (I belive PS2 is what they are called) and they are to small. I'm leaning towards them being a MIDI cable connector.

BuddyRich Posted December 27, 2012 Share #13 Posted December 27, 2012 Standard 5 pin din cables will work. Old Ps2 extension cables will also work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djh3 Posted December 27, 2012 Share #14 Posted December 27, 2012 Thanks Buddy, by "standard" is that a MIDI? There are so dang many out there when you go to looking. I thought I had a couple old PS2 cables but the ones I have are much cmaller in diameter, must be mouse or something. The diameter of the one I need is like 12.2mm or close to that I is what I get. You still doing the GPS/bluetooth cables? Last I knew you had to find a parts source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyRich Posted December 27, 2012 Share #15 Posted December 27, 2012 I have enough for about twenty more sets of my cable. The old AT keyboard are the right ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
