    Its one of those things depends on the cop, Ive been pulled over and yanked them out in sight of the cop and they said nothing. Plus just to be safe its easy to grab the wires and tuck it in your jacket while making it look like you're taking your helmet off.
    But yes, its illegal.

    you could always get some helmet speakers, I dont think they are illegal...or are they? I'm not sure but there is probably some blue tooth wireless device by now that would conceal such things.

    cause most states have different laws for bikes and cars

    look here for your state motorcycle laws

    in MA illegal to use or possess, in NH no restriction, in VT, no restriction

    Having played drums for the longest time in rock bands years ago, there is no way I can listen to music while riding! My hands and feet start tapping all over the place....

    luckily, my phone is also an MP3 player. i'll use one ear bud, and there's no way of knowing if i'm using it for phone or music
