Default EAR PLUGs !!!!! ehh??

guys, i was just wondering what if any ear plugs you wear and how much they are costing you, after reading that riding a bike can realy damage your ears i am thinking of buying the best type of plugs in bulk and selling them on to other riders at a cheaper price, as there are a lot of people ripping riders off with the price of there plugs, oh and wear them myself once i get a nice new can.
please post your opinions and thoughts, cheers

I wear the yellow spongy industrial type plugs. They don,t cost me anything, as a mate gets them from his workplace for me.

I wear the green Howard Leight ones. £10 for a large pillow - forgotten how many are in there, but I ride daily and they have lasted about a year. (I use new ones at the start of each week and whenever they look dirty)


Fantastic

Same.

You can get them cheap off of eBay as well.

I use Motosafe, these have the benefit of protecting you from the damaging "white" noise whilst still allowing you to hear people when wearing them and your crash helmet.

They are a bit pricy (£18-20) but they are also washable and I change mine once a year
