Portable plug-and-play radios like the SiriusXM OnyX EZR are popular for motorcycles because they are compact, easy to mount, and simple to remove when parked and they connect to existing stereo systems and helmet headsets.

There are several options:

• Direct wired connection to helmet speakers
• Bluetooth helmet communication systems
• Connection through motorcycle audio systems (if equipped)

Many riders pair SiriusXM with their Bluetooth helmet headset for wireless listening.
