Hey Brian thanks for the info on the radio setups...believe it or not that has been a huge issue for disabled overlanders who use handcontrols and want to talk on the radio.
With 1 hand on the brake/throttle lever and one on the steering wheel there is nothing left for the mic.

yeah thanks for that one! been trying to find one to plug into a handheld VHF. the ones i have found have a hardwired connection plug so you need to buy the kit to fit the radio, and if you ever upgrade, destroy, or replace one you need a new kit if it has a different jack

Two thumbs up for the Michelin T63 tire! I rode many thousand miles in Africa on several of them... Same rear profile as the Michelin Desert but is a bit softer and doesn't offer the "flat tire" protection. The front tires are different... Found the Desert to wild for on road but the T 63 is a nice compromise :-)

The IMC HS100 includes adapters to connect with several common brands in the HD 2-meter market including Icom and Yaesu.
With helmet mounted speakers and microphone along with a handlebar PTT button this is a good solution for under $100, around $60 I believe.

just checked out there website, the IMC HS400 series has adapters so you can run the 2m or 2way radio, along with plugging it into your phone or IPOD and allows switching between easily! $80US on there site.
