Bluetooth... Bad road noise

I picked up my new MC last week and I'm already having regrets about purchasing the bluetooth. It syncs up fine, but when I'm on a call, most of the conversation on the other end is... "huh?", "what did you just say?", "are you in a well?", "what's all that noise?".... I now sit up really straight and lean into the overhead mic to converse, to no avail.

Does anyone else have this problem, or a possible fix??? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I only get comments on noise if I'm doing more than about 50MPH with the sunroof venting, or the windows open. Once in a while I get a 'What?', but I tend to be a quiet talker, moving the microphone helped.

Here's a link to moving the bluetooth mic
