Anyone else feel the same?
Saying that when I have been on long tours abroad I have made the effort to wear them and after a day or 2 wondered I have managed so long without them but on returning home I started riding without again and got used to that.
I have a Arai RX7 and a Quantum and they are very noisy I borrowed my mates Shoei for an hour once and it was much quieter. Has anyone tried those ear plugs that are made to fit your ear? |
I know exactly what you mean, I can't hear a thing when I have occasionally tried earplugs, but now with the 999 and a new RX7 the noise is getting unbearable, after a day on the bike yesterday my left ear was aching, but I know if I try earplugs I end up in my own little world and cannot hear a thing around me.
