My wife and I are in the same situation as you. These work great out to about as far as you can see the other person.
I third the Sena SMH10. I don't use mine for intercom, but love it for bluetooth to my XM radio and phone.
I do know people that use it in small group riding (it handles 4 connections), and it works great for them.
http://www.sena.com/product/product/smh10/ A note about this...
If I am riding alone and want to lister to music ( very rare) I can Bluetooth my phone to the Sena.. and listen to iheart radio.. doing so means that phone calls will super cede the radio and I can take the an when finished go back to radio ... all pretty much hands free.
HOWEVER: SENA will tell you the speaker system is not stereo and is very poor for bass. So the sound is not great. However, the loundess and the overall sound range means you can hear the music though its better for voice..its just not great quality music. I am VERY OK with this .. as when I do listen to the radio its mostly for news and weather.. with music just being a bonus.
Now this also means that my wife with her SENA can place a cell call to MY SENA via my cell phone...and presto!! given good coverage... we have more range than any CB system. However the caller has to use their hands to place call. They do support VOX.. but I did not feel like figuring in out.
For the money .... the size, design, and features of the SENA system seem to beat the others currently. This can change at any moment as soon as someone leapfrogs the others.
