    Playing it backwards should do the trick.

    Laojiahuo, i was browsing taobao some more and came across a whole bunch of bluetooth systems such as this one, which costs 300RMB and has 500m range. There are some cheaper ones too, but with lower range.



    I think these are basically the same thing as that Cardo system that euphonious and chinaV were talking about. They seem like a more compact version of what you did, a bit better integrated, but with much much shorter range. Did you consider these and dismiss them for some reason? Or am i an ass for finding them after you've already spent all that money?

    If people just a want a cheap and crappy rider to passenger intercom, there also these for less than 50RMB. I suspect they are not very comfortable, but adequate.

    Yes, that is indeed a near-clone of the the CARDO SCALA, seen here:

    Felix - thanks for the tip! Looks like a good alternative.

    There is that ever-present problem that one encounters when riding with an unwired buddy ... how do you communicate?

    As there is always a solution out there, I seem to have found a great mod for my JH600B ...

    Might work for "Turn left at the next light" ... might not be a good idea for "Wow, you see that hot babe? I wouldn't mind ..."

    Question: Is that guy in the helmet a "rider" or a "driver" or a "pilot"?

    Answer: "DJ"

    Incidentally, I was told this week that here in Shanghai there are still only six JH600 two-wheelers -- Milton, Motokai, Ivan, two Chinese gentlemen who I've not met, and meself. But there already a dozen or more JH600B's, including one owned by brother Nostalgie. The beautiful olive drab sidecar in this picture appears to be military. Anyone recognize that 903 insignia? Or the blue uniform worn by the DJ? The flight helmet would suggest air force.....

    I need a drink.
