Bluetooth motorbike helmets

[ESCAPIS]

Is anyone aware or knows of a shop that might sell Helmets with built in Bluetooth?

I am particuarly interested in the Torc or O'Neal brands.

I haven't shopped for a helmet in Thailand so don't know, but even in Canada in a bike accessories shop I have seen only one model with BT, many more come ready for com systems installations and I bet the systems are readily available. I'd go this route as I can get the helmet that I like and that fits me and install the system into it.

Schuberth are the only quality helmet that I know of set up for BlueTooth. Not sure if there is a retailer in Thailand.

Panda Rider is a Schuberth dealer:

Vemar has bluetooth helmets but I doubt there is a Thailand dealer. Is it for rider-to-pillion communication? On a bike I prefer to be alone with my thoughts!

I was in Pattaya Super Bikes the other day looking at helmets and they had a Shark helmet with built-in bluetooth.

That is a lead I can follow.

Thank you lucky

I have several ebay and Amazon offers to ship the exact model i am after.

What would be the customs implication in Thailand for an import of around ฿12000?

Best case no duty, of course, but a helmet is very unlikely to slip through-~4K duty worst case.

Most dealers won't put a lower value on the customs form as it limits their insurance coverage in the event of a loss, but having it shipped to someone you know in the States and having them repackage it can help- unfortunately the customs office sees a lot of helmets come in and they know what to look for.
