Not worth it
Very disappointed in the fact that you cannot communicate at highway speeds because of the air that passes through the helmet. Also, no range. You cannot use these helmets to communicate on two different bikes, because they lose connection at anything past 30 feet.

Bluetoth Helmet
Unfortunately, I had to return the helmet. This is not the fault of the helmet but rather my head shape. I used the measurement guide provided and ordered the XXL size, the largest. However when it arrived it would hurt my head and not fit properly. People always told me that I had a big head and I didn't believe it. Now I know. I love the features and the design but if it doesn't fit, then what? I would like to say that the companies service was superb and I can only recommend doing business with them. Thank you for everything.

Vemar - Jiano Bluetooth Helmet
The helmet does do what it says it will do. Music listening is ok at speeds less than 75 mph, and communications helmet to helmet is great. The only thing I do not like is when I am listening to music you loose communication with your passenger. Phone operations are ok as well but once again not at highway speeds. Around town its great...

blue tooth vemar helmet
I used it for traveling on a 2000 mile trip. Both my wife and I had the same helmet. We both have Garmin zumo's and we connected the helmets to each other or to the zumo.
The helmets are very noisy. It’s very hard to hear each other or the MP3 player function of the zumo at anything above 40 MPH. I really just adds to the noise. My helmet fogged up during a rainstorm. Popping the visor up didn't help with the fogging.
I like the internal shaded visor and that the external visor stays popped up at any speed. Its a very good summertime helmet. Too much up airflow for a winter helmet in the front.

Not a bad helmet
Used the helmet intercom function with husband. Cannot understand each other on highway going over 55 mph. It lets too much air in and makes it hard to hear. Music doesn't sound all that great either. But, the ability to link to my gps, mp3 player without wires is worth it. Won't be using it in cold weather though. It would be really cold. The built in sunglasses are awesome. For the most part happy with it. Just wish it blocked the wind from coming in from under the chin better. I think it would be a much better product then. Worth it for the price.

Vemar bluetooth helmet
I think the helmet price with the Bluetooth versus without the Bluetooth is somewhat out of line. I did want the blue tooth already installed, so I paid the price. Not being well versed in technical stuff, I have yet been unable to pair the helmet with my Zumo 550. I have not yet asked for customer assistance. The 'Fit' is good except it is tight to the point of being fairly uncomfortable at the cheek area, but I am hoping that area will loosen up with more wear.

Blue Tooth Helmet
Helmet fits great. Inner sun shield is awesome for riding into sun. Bluetooth is noisy at high speeds, but a lot better than my previous experience with self installing Bluetooth units. Set up was easy and it automatically connects to my BlackBerry. Very impressive and has the "WOW" factor. I would defiantly buy this helmet again.

Wish it was larger.
I tried the XXL in hopes it would work for my head, but no luck. If a XXXL was available, I’d give it a shot. I currently wear an XL KBC helmet which fits better than the Vemar. The Bluetooth system is excellent. Chin bar open or closed at 75mph, and my wife could hear me fine (though I was more muffled with the bar closed simply because of the helmet's size). This is a well-made, well-designed, and well-integrated bluetooth helmet. Nothing cheap feeling here. All the bluetooth features worked as advertised. Airflow was average (but much better than my KBC). If you have an average size head, I'd suggest going with the Vemar, but go one size up at least to be safe.

Very nice helmet
This is a very nice helmet. I purchased it for touring, when you want to stop frequently to talk or hydrate, so the flipface is handy. The internal visor is a great feature, and always stays clean behind the main visor. The bluetooth connected to my LG phone and Garmin Zumo easily. The only downside is the audio quality. Being stereo, I was hoping for audiophile sound quality......NOT! It is fine for voice, talking on phone, which I never do while riding, but I hope the next generation drastically upgrades the frequency response, top volume and background noise rejection of the bluetooth. The helmet fits much differently than my Shoei RF1000. It is much shorter in the back, and the cheek pads are much thicker, slightly squeezing my face. I will contact the company to see if they offer thinner ones. The price is fine considering the features and finish, and it was not much more than my other helmet.

Purchase the Vemar helmet a few month ago and it is great. The fit and the look are amazing. A bit pricey but worth the extra money.
