I guess that makes my ears standard.

I've owned a few and none of them were better than Apple OEM earbuds that came with my Ipod classic.

I don't wear a helmet and tried a few different Skull Candy and neither the wife or I cared for them. Now have a pair of Shure after extensive research/searches here. Both the wife and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE these (with the smallest foam bud). They work so well I can't wear them in the city because they block out everything. The wind noise they block out on the highway is insane. Got them at the local Apple store.

+1 for Shure. I used them on my old Street Bob. 75 mph with a half helmet and no windshield and I could hear my ipod fine at half volume.

Here in VA its illegal to wear headphones while driving. I assume that applies to motorcycles. Do you guys just conceal them? Do cops tend to not care?

Only one ear is allowed in Cali but they are too busy to worry about ear buts.

I believe it's illegal in IA as well but I've never been hassled.
