Harley-Davidson WHIM:

Mesh Intercom mode - No

Bluetooth Intercom mode - No

The 30K is not able to use the Audio Multitasking feature when it is paired to the Boom! Audio Infotainment system on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. The Harley-Davidson Boom! Infotainment Audio system on the bike takes priority over all of the lower priority functions of the 30K like Mesh and Bluetooth Intercom, the FM radio, Bluetooth streaming music and GPS directions from a smartphone.

Only the Boom! Audio 30K Bluetooth headset from Harley-Davidson allows the Audio Multitasking feature to be used in Mesh Intercom mode or Bluetooth Intercom mode when paired to Harley-Davidson Boom! Infotainment system.

Sena FreeWire: 

Mesh Intercom mode - Yes

Bluetooth Intercom mode - Yes

The 30K can use the Audio Multitasking feature when it is in Mesh Intercom mode and Bluetooth Intercom while it is connected to the FreeWire to hear the audio system on a Harley-Davidson or a Honda Gold Wing and talk over the intercom at the same time.

The Boom! Audio 30K was designed to provide the best audio experience when paired and connected to the Harley-Davidson WHIM (Wireless Headset Interface Module).

The first difference is that music and GPS directions will be heard in stereo when the Boom! Audio 30K is connected to the Boom! Audio system on a Harley-Davidson. With the Sena 30K, music and GPS directions will be heard in mono with the Sena 30K.

The second difference is that the Boom! Audio 30K can use the Audio Multitasking feature in Mesh Intercom mode or Bluetooth Intercom mode to allow the rider to talk over the intercom and listen to music and GPS directions from the audio system at the same time. With the Sena 30K, music and GPS directions from the Boom! Audio system on the Harley-Davidson will interrupt all intercom communication on the headset.

Yes. The 30K and the 20S / 20S EVO use the same universal clamp kit for installing on a helmet.
