I wear earplugs and I ride a Road King. Makes the ride more relaxing.

A good pair of in-ear headphones work well too, and provide some tunes.
Yup, me too. Cuts out the wind, but lets the music come through.

If you ride alot,I say wear ear protection. Its easy enough to do and could prevent hearing loss or problems (like ringing in the ears) later.

Too late for me and the ringing ears. (It's miserable at times.) So I warn you: PROTECT YOUR EARS NOW. This sort of thing comes back later to haunt you.

I've heard it said that our bodies are like tape recorders: It records EVERYTHING you do to it the first 40 years. It then goes into PLAYBACK mode for the next 40, with increasing volumes each year!

Sadly, there's a lot of truth to that.

PROTECT your hearing before it's too late!
