Just bought Autocom Pro

[tony1100]

Just bough an Autocom Pro systems rider/Pillion do you think I can get it into the crappy Shuberth Concept Helmets without totally destroying them....Pieces of S****e helmets.... :bang:

what flip front helmets do any of you guys use that he Autocom Mic's fit into easily?

 

[Artemis]

We use Caberg Justissimo. As with most helmets, you have to pull them apart to get the bits in, bit they do go back together, with a bit of tugging and pushing. I had to cut away a bit of the polystyrene around the ear to avoid discomfort, as the ear pieces are quite large.

Good luck, it's great once it's done.

Managed to get them in at last.... with a few "&%^$?" and "*U^&%$?" well chosen words... something then occured to me when we tested them out, the wife and I sitting in the living room.... what happens we have the misfoutune to be de-biked....

Could end up getting decaputated :} with all these wires... NAH! don't like this setup.. :bang: will have to buy some bike to bike versions so that we are not physically connected with cables... waste of money that was...
anyone want to but an Autocom Pro rider to pillion set?

They come apart when pulled, as I've found when I've gone to get off forgetting to disconnect.

What we've done is mount the unit under the seat and bring the headset leads out at back and front, then you are connected to the bike rather than to each other. Hang in there, it works really well. All rider to pilliions involve cables, but they disconnect under stress. We've tried several different makes and Autosom is the clear winner in opinion.

Mine is setup the same as Artemis, under the seat wired to the bikes electrics and leads out front and rear when in use, if you come off the bike the least of your worries is that the leads will somehow decapitate you both, they will without a shadow of a doubt part as they are meant to, and leave you both to make your own merry way down the road.
