I purchased a Motocomm headset in August and have logged a few thousand miles of use. I use the system with a motorcycle CB radio and have the headset mounted in a Scorpion EXO-100 half-helmet. The speakers are fairly large on this headset, and they fit tightly into the holders provided in the EXO-100 helmet. The wire was easy to conceal in the helmet's zip liner. The microphone attaches to the helmet using adhesive Velcro disks. The speakers and microphone attach to the wire harness using small two pin plugs. The plugs are fragile, and care must be taken to avoid breaking them when tucking them into the crevices of the helmet. I broke the microphone plug and fixed that with telephone splice connectors. The microphone boom eventually broke from being flexed many times. Motocomm replaced the microphone and helmet wiring harness without any expense to me or requiring me to return parts. Excellent customer service. I was also informed the new microphone boom is re-designed and the new part will not break.
Once setup the wiring is easy to manage. The set comes with two coiled extension, and I only need one of those. The push to talk button wraps around the left handlebar grip and places the button in a good location to avoid having to move hands from the driving position. The speakers have very good sound quality, and the whole unit is easily detached at stops using the DIN plugs. A flat surface and arrow on the plug body makes alignment easier for re-attachment, but it still requires a precise fit to avoid damaging the pins. The microphone picks up considerable wind noise if the rider uses a half-helmet or lacks a fairing. Sheltering the microphone from wind-blast, or using a modular or full helmet improves transmission sound quality.
Overall the headset is very flexible and works well. Less expensive headsets are essentially disposable, but Motocomm backs up their product to keep it in service, and representatives are courteous knowledgeable and helpful. I recommend this product.
