The Best Bluetooth Helmets for Avid Motorcycle Enthusiasts.
Installed · Charged · Tested · Paired
Shop Bluetooth motorcycle helmets that are ready to talk the day they arrive: Sena smart helmets with the intercom built into the shell, plus Shoei and HJC helmets that we ship with a Sena, Cardo or SMART HJC headset already installed, charged and tested.
Quick answer: A Bluetooth helmet has the communication system already in it, so you get phone calls, music, GPS directions and rider-to-rider intercom without buying and installing a separate headset. This collection has two kinds: integrated smart helmets from Sena, and helmet + headset bundles on Shoei Gen 3 and HJC 2nd-generation SMART HJC helmets. Every bundle is installed, charged and tested by The Helmet Shop before it ships, and when you order two, we pair the headsets to each other.
Watch: Bluetooth Helmets vs Bluetooth-Ready Helmets
Why Buy a Bluetooth Helmet From The Helmet Shop
Most retailers ship the helmet and the headset in separate boxes and leave the install, charging and pairing to you. We do that work before your order leaves our shop.
You still get a genuine helmet and a genuine headset, each with its full manufacturer warranty.
Bluetooth Helmet vs Bluetooth-Ready Helmet vs Add-On Headset
| Type | What it is | Pros | Trade-offs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Integrated smart helmet | Intercom built into the shell by the maker (Sena smart helmets) | Cleanest look, one product, one warranty | Electronics can't be moved to your next helmet |
| Helmet + headset bundle | Bluetooth-ready helmet with a matched headset installed by us (Shoei + Sena/Cardo, HJC + SMART HJC) | Factory-designed fit, flush controls, premium helmet choice, ready to ride | Matched systems fit only their helmet family |
| Bluetooth-ready helmet | Helmet with speaker and mic pockets, no headset included | Pick any compatible system later | You buy, install, charge and pair the headset yourself, or use our install service |
| Universal add-on headset | Clamp or adhesive-mount unit for most helmets | Moves between helmets | Bulkier, external unit on the shell |
Shoei Helmets With Bluetooth Installed
Shoei's Gen 3 helmets — the Neotec 3 modular, GT-Air 3 full face and J-Cruise 3 open face — are built around the SHOEI Comlink system, so the headset sits inside the helmet with no clamp on the shell. Choose solids or graphics with one of three systems:
| Headset | Intercom | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Sena SRL3 | Mesh Intercom 3.0 — Group Mesh up to 24 riders, Open Mesh virtually unlimited; 4-way Bluetooth intercom | Invisible integration, Harman Kardon audio, group rides with Sena riders |
| Cardo Packtalk-S | Cardo mesh intercom | Group rides with Cardo riders |
| Cardo 4X-S | Bluetooth intercom | Rider-and-passenger or small-group riding |
Sena SRL3 at a glance: Harman Kardon 40 mm speakers and mic, Advanced Noise Control, Bluetooth 5.0, up to 2 km (1.2 mi) range, up to 10 hours of Mesh talk time / 12 hours Bluetooth intercom, voice commands, FM radio and a 3-year Sena warranty. The SRL3 fits Gen 3 Shoei helmets only, not the Neotec 2 or GT-Air 2. See all Shoei Bluetooth helmets. Want the new Shoei RF-1500? It has built-in communicator pockets, and we can install your headset before it ships.
HJC Smart Helmets With SMART HJC Installed
HJC's 2nd-generation SMART HJC communicators are designed with Sena for HJC's Smart-ready helmets and mount in built-in pockets with no clamp on the shell. We offer them installed in the RPHA 91 and i91 modulars, the RPHA 72, RPHA 71, F71 and i71 full faces, and the RPHA 31 and F31 open faces.
| SMART HJC | Intercom | Choose it if |
|---|---|---|
| 11B | Bluetooth, rider-to-passenger | You mostly talk with a passenger and want the lowest price |
| 21B | 4-way Bluetooth, up to 1,600 m (1 mi); up to 13 hours | You ride with a small group of friends |
| 50B | Sena Mesh plus Bluetooth intercom, up to 2 km; voice commands and FM radio | You join bigger group rides or ride with Sena Mesh users |
RPHA models use HJC's premium P.I.M. shells; the i and F series use lighter, more affordable polycarbonate and fiberglass shells. HJC helmets carry a 5-year-from-purchase / 7-year-from-manufacture warranty. Shop all HJC smart helmets or browse HJC helmets.
Sena Smart Helmets With Built-In Intercom
Sena builds the communication system into the helmet itself — speakers, mic, battery and controls — so there is nothing to install. Styles include full face (Specter, Phantom, Phantom ANC with active noise cancellation, Phantom XB, Stryker, Outforce), modular (Impulse, Outrush 2, Outrush R), dual sport (Outlander), open face (Surge) and half helmet (Cavalry 2). Shop Sena smart helmets.
How to Choose a Bluetooth Motorcycle Helmet
- Match your riding group. Sena Mesh talks best to Sena; Cardo mesh talks best to Cardo. Ask your riding buddies what they run.
- Pick by riding style. Full face for the quietest audio at highway speed, modular for touring and glasses wearers, open face for airflow around town.
- Two-up riding? Order both helmets together and we pair the headsets so rider and passenger can talk out of the box.
- Size first. Speakers sit closer to your ears in a well-fitted helmet. Measure with our helmet sizing charts.
- Check the law. Every helmet here is DOT certified; some states limit headset use, so check yours.

Bluetooth Helmet FAQ
What is the difference between a Bluetooth helmet and a Bluetooth-ready helmet?
A Bluetooth helmet already has a communication system in it. A Bluetooth-ready helmet has speaker and mic pockets but no headset; you buy and install one yourself. Our helmet + headset bundles give you a Bluetooth-ready helmet with the matched headset installed, charged and tested by us.
Is the headset already installed when my helmet arrives?
Yes. Every bundle in this collection ships with the headset installed in the helmet, fully charged and tested — speakers, microphone, controls and Bluetooth connection.
If I order two helmets, will the headsets talk to each other?
Yes. When you order two helmet-and-headset bundles together, we pair the two headsets to each other before shipping. Turn them on and you can talk to your passenger or riding partner right away.
Which is better, Sena or Cardo?
Both make excellent systems. The biggest factor is who you ride with: Sena Mesh works best with other Sena units and Cardo mesh with other Cardo units. Sena SRL3 offers the most hidden install on Shoei Gen 3 helmets and Harman Kardon audio.
Which SMART HJC should I choose: 11B, 21B or 50B?
Choose the 11B if you only talk with a passenger, the 21B for 4-way intercom with small groups (up to 1.6 km), or the 50B for Sena Mesh group riding, 2 km range, voice commands and FM radio.
Can I listen to music and use GPS through a Bluetooth helmet?
Yes. All of these systems connect to your phone for calls, music and turn-by-turn GPS directions, and many support voice assistants like Siri and Google Assistant.
Does installing a headset affect the helmet's safety or warranty?
No. These headsets are designed for these helmets and mount in the built-in pockets. You get a genuine helmet and a genuine headset, each covered by its own manufacturer warranty.
Can you install a headset in a helmet I already own?
Yes for compatible Shoei helmets through our Shoei headset installation service. Call us with your helmet model and we will confirm what fits.
Are Bluetooth motorcycle helmets DOT approved?
Yes. Every helmet in this collection meets DOT FMVSS 218, and the electronics sit in pockets designed into the helmet so they do not compromise impact protection.
