I just took my first extended ride on my FJR (500 miles) and was impressed with its performance on the super slab. Cruising at 80mph is effortless and smooth. Here is my problem however. I have Tinitus (ringing in the ears) and all the wind noise (even with a full face helmet) aggrevates my condition 10 fold if riding for long periods of time. I am trying to come to some sort of resolution so I am not confined to the cage for all of my trips.
I am wondering if there is a paticular kind of earplug made for wearing in helmets? I want something that would be somewhat flush with the ear so the helmet can slide right over them without shifting the plugs.
I am also looking at a different windshield to aid in the noise and buffeting. I have read all kinds of threads but there are so many different opinions I guess I am just going to have to try them one at a time for myself in order to see what works best for me.
Any help on the earplugs is GREATLY appreciated.
