Earplugs?

[tomjones2]

Do you or don't you?

Depends if I remember them, or if i lose one in the middle of a rideout, and then realise I haven't got any spares with me... :roll:

99.9% percent of the time!

Only time I don't is when I'm keeping my ear out for a problem mechanical or otherwise that's cropped up.

(Ears=balance=riding) that my argument anyway

Depends on ride out (but should know better)

Above 70mph, the plugs really hurt my ears, think its due to air pressure building up inside helmet (Arai Astro J)

They are custom fitted moulded plugs and are otherwise superb, much better than the foam type which I found were totally useless

.....or "Rhubarb & Custards" as I call 'em - they're yellow & pink. Very comfy.

Proper fitting is the secret.....You absolutely MUST follow the instructions to open up the ear canal and allow them to get right in. Ill fitting=ill working.

Yep, all the time. Originally I figured nah, don't need to bother but then I went out for a bimble on the SV and after 45 minutes my ears were ringing as if I had been out all night clubbing. So in went the ear plugs. Took a bit of getting used to well worth it in my opinion.

I use those ones to. They are the best ones that i found after trying loads of different ones.

No, I don't wear earplugs.

[keithd]

yep. ear plugs all the way for me too. allows me to concentrate on riding rather than the grinding of gears, wailing of an engine and general abuse my bike gets when i'm astride it :oops:

[Ceri JC]

Yep. I think people who don't see the point should talk to a few old bikers who've ridden for years without them. THEY TEND TO SHOUT and can't hear you. :D
