Earplugs every ride, after all, it's not pleasant being deaf.

I use earplugs and if its a long boring journey, ear plugs with ear phones too.
As said before, its no fun being deaf (I'm partially deaf already so should know). Long term wind frequency noise causes permanent damage and deafness. ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR HEARING!* *Shouted for the deaf!! Last edited by speedplay; 08-12-09 at 01:09 PM. |

I use plugs all the time now, even though they only recommend that you need to use them over about 50mph. Removing more of the noise allows you to concentrate more on the feel of what the engine is doing, which in turn IMO helps with your riding |
