What about for a 3/4 helmet? Anyone use it with success, is the volume ok?

They get pretty loud. I'm betting your only issues will be talking on the phone with them. My full face handles calls easily, I'm sure it'll do fine.

Just installed this on an open face helmet and seem to work fine. The volume is not as good but that is to be expected with more wind compared to a full face helmet. Still can hear my music. I really like how easy it was to install on second helmet. Was great it came with two clips to use on a second helmet. Was told no issues when making a call and I could hear the person just fine. Keep in mine this is the first Bluetooth I bought for my helmet so their not another one I can compare it to.

I use the UClear in my ski helmet and while I have used it for music while I ski, I'm really not an expert. The sound quality to my ear, however, is very good.

Volume is good. I only turn it a quarter turn, but I use it for hiking and hunting.

Hi, I used it with audio books. It didn't increase the volume dramatically. I still had issues with volume while driving at highway speeds. This is going to sound a little weird but I was able to hear with the speaker secured with my bra strap. The speaker was then close enough to my ear. I don't have hearing problems.

I wear the box around my neck but if you strap it around your waist I think you will do fine. It's not very heavy. I prefer the 12 amp model as the 16 amp has been giving me feedback (screeching) if I get too close to anything. The headset is light and it will save your voice. I recommend.

Yes. It is essentially designed for use with half-helmets. Plug in your favorite ear buds and you are set.

Although it probably depends on the helmet, I can get to controls with the 2 helmets I own. I prefer the controls near my ears as they are with my old motorola headset but for $12 I can live with this :)Regarding complaints about sound quality, I was able to improve this significantly by using better fitting earbud covers than those supplied which we're quite small. Again, what do you expect for $12??

Yes, have the same problem with both of my helmets and the volume does not work either. Even on high volume without the motorcycle running my husband & I can barely hear each other. This helmet is definetely not worth the money!

Yes - there are speakers that easily slip into helmets setup for music. One word of caution, though. I have heard how great these are, but in some simple tests around the office (low speed), the other side complained about the audio quality. Could just be me - I have not done an exhaustive test, or could have something configured wrong.

Because it is made for a closed face helmet, the mic is somewhat shielded from wind and exterior noise. I use mine when riding our dirt bikes in the desert and it works great. It would probably work well for your situation.

Hi It is not designed for these purpouse , Only for helmet beside Noise arround It´s not a problem but you need a stand a geometry to fix it on and get any confort using it.

Hi, i recommended Large helmet. Curiosly, my head size is exactly than yours. Enjoy.

myself and my roommate each got one of these and we ended up putting 1.5 inches of foam inside against the back and sides because there was so much room that the helmets would shake around. There is a lot of room inside. That said, the opening might be an issue. We typically turn our heads sideways to put it on since the helmet is wider than it is deep because of the breathing features. It may be annoying putting on if you have a big head because it catches on your ears, but once on I think you will be fine

From what I've read I think you would at lest use a 3/4 helmet. You would have to have an anchor point for the boom mic and ear covers to use the provided head set.

It's ok, the headgear is weak. Not for every day use. But it works. We use it now & then. I'm thinking of putting a welding helmet headgear in it. Headgear is the weak link.

The sound is not affected by speed except for the fact that you will observe increased wind noise. Just crank it up a bit louder - the sound quality is ok, it beats dealing with headphone wires fighting with your helmet and safer than wearing headphones too.
