+1 on the JVC. Great sound for the price.
I recently won a set of Bose ear buds at a trade show and they sound amazing. I looked them up and saw that retail is about $100. They reproduce bass much better on the bike in the face of 70+ mph winds. I was going to sell them, but they sound too good to pass up.

This may be a silly question but isn't it against the law to ride with earphones?

Interesting site, thanks...I didn't know that there was no law prohibiting lane splitting in Ohio.

Back when I rode a Fatboy I did this: http://www.headwize.com/projects/cmoy4_prj.htm. Works great! I still use them on long trips on the StreetGlide.

I use Shure E3C in-ear noise-isolating monitors. They're not cheap, but they do a great job of sealing out background noise, so that I don't have to crank up the volume, even at highway speeds. I can ride all day (and have put in 16+hour days) without any discomfort or ringing in my ears.
Cheers!

Koss Spark Plugs, about $15/ pair and work really well for me. I use it all the time. I did hear the the Shure were the best, however at those prices I'ld be sure to lose them or wreck them somehow. (like the cheap vs big $$ sunglasses theory)
