Fitting Autocom headset in Shoei RF-1000

[Dundee387]

Anyone have this setup? Do you also use ear plugs?

 

The Autocom headset fit great inside my older RF-800, which has deeper ear wells... The 1000 is much more snug.

 

I can't see how this would work without cutting into the helmet.. Very tight.

I wear foam earplugs with my RF-1000 and to make things manageable I disassembled the speaker from the plastic surround, placed it into position traced the outline and with a mototool removed a tiny amount of foam, just enough to make the fit tolerable. No problems since.

I carved into mine. The directions say it's a no-no but there's no way the speakers would clear my ears without imbedding them into the foam. And yes, I also wear earplugs and it works great but does require close to full volume on the ipod.

+1 on my Shoei X-11.

As suggestions, above indicate there's more than one approach. The RF1000 ear pockets are small and shallow.

 

If you want, we can assist you in fitting the headset - much of Connecticut is not so far from here.
