Helmet-Mounted SystemsBackChat-Vixen IntercomsBackChat!$100 (base unit)This unique system is an air-driven intercom, using the same technology as the old "bridge to engine room" system previously used on ships. The device isn't electric powered, relying on a system of tubes to transmit sound waves without interference from external noise sources. It's semi-DIY, but once you figure out how everything fits, the system is extremely easy to install, requiring only a few pieces of Velcro to attach to the rider's and passenger's helmets. The ear pieces are soft silicone earplugs that also provide noise attenuation. The upsides are that the BackChat is extremely lightweight, provides true duplex sound and is always "on"-simply speak when you want to. BackChat-Vixen claims clear sound at 80-90 mph with a full touring motorcycle, and there are separate add-on units available (one for an audio player or GPS, another for a cell phone or two-way radio).Dimensions: 2.5"W x 1.25"H x 0.75"Dwww.backchat-vixen.com; (305) 477-2333
