some MP3 players and I Pods have FM station capabilities. Which means you should be able to use Sirius radio transmitters. This is something I'm going to try with my MP3. I'll let you know if it works.

With the Goldwing I have an Autocom sound system, xm radio, ipod, intercom etc. We tried using the helmet speakers... at least my wife did. She wears a 3/4 lid. I wear a half helmet. Let me say, helmet speakers simply do not work for us. If you have them and like them bravo... we hate them.

On the Drifter - she doesn't ride, but I like to listen to tunes from my ipod. I usually insert it into my jacket and use earphones.

I tried a bunch of different brand earphones/earbuds and speaker systems. Most of the earphones are really made for bikers. They get blown out of your ear, allow excess noise, are uncomfortable, etc. No one likes to mess with earphones while riding.

After a lot of research and dozens of different earphones I came across the Comply NR-10 High-Tech Noise Reduction earphones. They are effective in reducing noise and the soft buds are inserted just as you would insert ear plugs for hearing protection. It has a volume control which is more useful on the drifter, where I can't get to the ipod volume control.

If you ride and use earphones, you might want to give these a try.
