Finally. Take a look:

Easrplugged earphones. Easy to jig together and they work very well.
It's quite a strange sensation riding with music after having nothing
but wind noise for so long.
I found I had to concentrate more on gear selection as I could no longer
determine the shift points by listening to the engine. Feels quite
strange accelerating in first with no appreciable engine noise!
They don't quite offer the same noise attentuation as those earplugs do
before cutting and drilling them, but I found it quite acceptable at
100km/h. That's a bonus actually - an incentive to stick to the speed
limit! Riders of bikes with bigger fairings wouldn't be so encumbered...
From a safety aspect, the only problem I felt was the possibility of
getting too wrapped up in a great song and losing concentration and/or
riding for more thrills.
Oh and the looks you get when you ride past people screaming the lyrics
of Whole Lotta Love...
Got the idea here:
