RichardH 0 Posted March 4, 2012 I always wear earplugs, even for very short journies, I'm thinking of splashing out on some good custom plugs, anyone got any or recomend a company? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Makes so much differnce when wearing my Shoei. Saves about 30db on your ears. Who over says buying a decent lid is good for the head forgot about buying decent ear plugs too.

Robbie 0 Posted March 5, 2012 I know its not answering your question but I've used these plugs for a few years now and would highly recommend them, they are comfortable to the point you can forget they're in and are very good at reducing wind noise even at triple figures.I normally buy them in packs of 50 pairs from ebay for around £7-8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grumpyowl 0 Posted March 5, 2012 moldex are fine but i've got funny shaped earholes and they dont stay in place and are uncomfortable for me.so depends on your ear shape i suppose a bit like different brand lids fit some better than others.motto is suck it and see Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
