Cardo Systems, maker of bike-to-bike communication and Bluetooth systems, is teaming up with Polaris Industries, parent company of Victory Motorcycles.
Cardo Systems, Inc., the world’s market leader in wireless Bluetooth communications for motorcycle and all-terrain helmet headsets, announced its new distribution partnership with Polaris & Victory Motorcycles.

Polaris is well known within the industry as an expert in design and manufacturing of off-road vehicles and snowmobiles. Victory Motorcycles specializes in the manufacturing of American-made motorcycles for the touring and cruiser motorcycle enthusiasts. Polaris & Victory Motorcycles will become the newest valued addition to Cardo’s targeted distribution channel to carry the Cardo Scala Rider Q2 Bluetooth headset featuring rider to rider intercom communication up to 500m/1,640ft.

"We are very pleased to be forming this relationship with Polaris & Victory Motorcycles," said Abraham Glezerman, Chairman and CEO of Cardo Systems. "Both companies are leaders and experts in their fields; Cardo, at providing the most innovative and technically advanced Bluetooth helmet headsets with features that are ground-breaking to the industry and Polaris and Victory Motorcycles, as a leader in the development of an array of advanced, fun-to-ride off and on-road vehicles for a multitude of riding enthusiasts across markets, including ATV, side-by-side, motorcycle and snowmobile markets. Both companies strive to continue to redefine a rider’s experience."

"Adding the Cardo Scala Rider system to our catalog is a natural fit," says Jason Toso of Victory Motorcycles. “We strive to engineer the best American luxury cruisers and touring motorcycles on the market, and an industry leader such as Cardo is a perfect accessory for our products and our owners, particularly as our touring line has developed.”

The Cardo SCALA RIDER Q2 headset features all-terrain rider to rider intercom communications up to 500m/1,640ft, depending on traffic, terrain and line of site. It also allows riders to connect wirelessly by Bluetooth to one of the following audio sources including: in-helmet voice instructions from a GPS unit, mobile phone conversations with third parties and intercom conversations with passengers and with other riders. The headsets also feature high-quality FM radio transmissions from the embedded FM radio. It sports a noise-canceling microphone and speaker booster and is fully rain, snow and mud resistant. A MP3 player can be connected to the headset’s embedded auxiliary jack to receive wired STEREO music. Whether you are riding your motorcycle, ATV, side-by-side, or snowmobile, the SCALA RIDER Q2 is a great way to communicate with another rider.

The Cardo SCALA RIDER Q2 headset (Polaris part number 2859994) is now available from your local authorized Polaris or Victory Dealer or online at www.purepolaris.com.

I should have clarified.. I have mine hooked up to My TomTom motorcycle GPS.. so when it's giving me street and turn by turn directions, there is no two-way comms going on at the same time.

My husband and I each ride and we purchased this comm system about 6 months ago. We love it. We love the two way communication in it, but sometimes it takes a moment or two to get the communications back after it's given you street directions. Of course, I don't mind, I have John Cleese giving me my turn by turn instructions! I haven't tried it with my IPOD as yet, but I'm guessing there could be some delay with that as well. We get surprisingly good distance before losing the signal.. so we are really happy with our unit. Well worth the price.
