My missus dad told me to wait until the bike show to get some of the moulded ones, they take a mould of your inner ear then at the end of the day you pick up your ear plugs.
£45 for the basic ones I believe, but you can also get ones with noise filter built in that let certain sounds in so you can hear people talking to you.

The guys at the clay shoot say those are excellent, considering getting some.

or try the NHS audiologist department at the hospital, exactly the same as paying 45 quid for. Should get them free. I'm deaf myself but you can get special ones made without the hole for hearing aid attachement that is. I actually got a pair when I was younger for swimming to block the water entering.

I wear plugs all the time on the bike, my job depends on maintaining a medical which periodicly includes an audiogram; according to the Dr my hearing is excellent and I aim to keep it that way.
Northwind make sure you are puting the correct plug in your ear I tried to put them in the wrong side when I first got the custom plugs ![]() |

I've just bought a pack of assorted ones so you try the different types before buying. Hope it helps.
