I would like to be able to talk on the phone, and talk to my passenger, via bluetooth, but I do not wear a helmet.
Does anyone know if there any products that will allow for clear, loud communication at highway speeds?

For a microphone you would need something like a WWII throat mic that Bomber crews used on the intercom. Very little wind and outside noise. For the headset you would need something like the in-ear plugs shooters wear.

I do not know of anyone that makes this type of device but maybe someone should.

Without a helmet to secure the mic and the earpiece I fear my friend that your choices are limited. Well there is always a dry erase maker on the inside of your windshield. Then just tilt your head and your rider can read it, she can always wisper sweet nothings into your ear to respond. Just a thought. Good luck in your search.

I have a Camos BTS-300 and they sell a "Half Helmet" earpiece with microhpone that I use. You would have to find a way to strap on the Bluetooth receiver but you cuold run a longer connection cable and put it in your pocket guess. Mine is mounted on my half helmet side but it is small enough to go anywhere as long as you extend the 3.5 plug to it from the headset

Here is a link for you to look at: http://imcmoto.com/bluetooth/bts-300h-bluetooth-headset.html

Nice part is that it supports Bluetooth 2.0 which transmits perfect Stereo. I have not used it for passenger communications, but it works great on phone and hearing audio. But at highway Speeds, you will have some wind noise no matter what you do.
