Having a screen on a motorcycle is still really spooky to me...
Audio directions in the headset is a nice touch.

Sorry, I don't think that the Cardo ScalaRider in included with the TomTom.
I use the Scala, it's great, works with my Tilt perfectly. As to the TomTom Rider series, I'd sooner suggest the Magellan Crossover, it's half the price and is also water-proo... Ah, water-resistant. It can be unnerving to hear a loud and clear voice inside your helmet when you're not expecting it, so I just turn the volume up on the Xover and I still hear it very well at highway speeds.

I'm positive it doesn't come with it...
But they say (almost) any head set should work especially a helmet friendly one. It does spook me out to have more things to look at so listening is a relief

Or you could just turn the volume down on the TomTom...
