I am pretty sure you are referring to the "lame" subjects. Huh, just like this one!!!

+1 on this answer....Geeeesh. if you can afford a 20 thousand dollar motorcycle you can drive somewhere or order online a great pair of ear plugs that will provide protection from high piercing sounds but yet still let you hear lower frequency sounds around you.

 

ride with your head facing the side till your ear fills up with bugs, then look the other way and do the other ear!

Yep. It's like the blind leading the blind! It's a train wreck i can't keep my eyes off!

 

I just use pieces of&nbsp\\; cottonballs&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; and dig&nbsp\\; it out later with a key&nbsp\\; lol,&nbsp\\; redneck style.&nbsp\\;&nbsp\\; Most earplugs i ever tried were just uncomfortable

 

ok, some of you may have missed my post in regard to "I got a windshield", so I can hear everything just fine now.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; But, I also tried some ear plugs without the windshield and that worked also.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Second\\\\\\; I just wanted some quick suggestions.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Third, get in your car and roll-up the windows[/b]?&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; What a putz.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Like mentioned\\\\\\; over 50mph it's just wind noise\\\\\\; over 75 pretty uncomfortable.&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; Shooting guns early on, loud music, etc.\\\\\\; so if I want to be able to hear my bike in regard to pipes (I like the sound), RPM's (which I can feel but prefer to hear also), etc. (all of which I can with my full face helmet, or with a windshield OR with my ear plugs)\\\\\\; that’s not man enough for you?&nbsp\\;\\\\\\; ****-off and grow-up\\\\\\; do what you like how you like (as long as it doesn't jeopardize others) and I won't complain or judge, make asinine comments that attempt to make a statement about anyone (and there appear to be many) that might wear ear protection and that's your right also, but what an ***-hole.

 

Actually, the reason I hate to wear them is that I can't hear with them in, and they make me feel like I have a head cold.&nbsp\\; But, with my windshield, the wind noise is usually not bad at all.&nbsp\\; On the hot humid days which seem to substantially increase wind noise, I can get by by putting one ear plug in the ear the wind is blowing into, and then I can still hear out of the other ear.&nbsp\\; The exhaust noise is too far behind me to be a problem.

 

without my shield, i need earplugs now too. the wind noise at 75mph+ makes me ears ring for hours.
&nbsp\\;
earplus work wonders for me now.... i JUST started using them... and am able to hear everything around me without a problem
