Hey Batfink,
I use Scala Rider Q2 Pro and they are good, but if I could get a OEM built in then I would. The reason for this would be wind noise with it on? I'm looking at getting a Shark helmet next year with the OEM bluetooth unit as it tucked away out of the wind.
The best pointer here is... you really get what you pay for with these (Trust me I learnt the hard way) as in battery standby and life (this is the biggest complaint from all users) and after sales service etc... also they aren't aren't really that cheap but well worth it to use on the longer trips etc... plus you can also pair up with some of ya mates on long rides which is fun too, can call passing from way out front (about 1km line of sight approx)
me 2 cents

thx raceworx,
I was really looking at interphone but heard that blueant dumped them from sales... they seemed to out perform scala in all the reviews I looked at but then it's the working mans point of view I wanted. If it comes close to same price as Nolan's version and Nolans allow linking with any bluetooth system then I might go that way as it's made for helmet and vise versa.. just like to investigate things before handing over my hard earned bucks

I just upgraded to the G9 unit (from the Q2 pro set) - once you figure out the complicated voice navigation it's pretty damn good. Audio quality is excellent, and I'm really liking not having to be plugged into my phone for music. The bluetooth audio is great.
Only downside is having to figure out how it all works - can be a little complicated if you intend to use all the functions on offer. I'm planning on printing out the cheat sheet of voice commands.
But overall an awesome unit.
(this means I now have a spare Q2 powerset lying around... I'll post em up in for sale or PM me for more details)
