I’m already def as fuck so I wear my plugs every ride. I need to keep what little hearing I got. The last thing you want is not to hear your grand kids say hello grandpa.
Weird.. my mindset is "I'm already deaf, why should I wear hearing protection for something I can't hear?"... I don't wear hearing protection when I ride, shoot most guns, or when I drove my old drag car... Screw it.. grandkids will be bilingual... English and sign language lol
Bike: $7500 Helmet: $350 Gloves: $120 Boots: $250 Suit: $800 Custom hearing protection: 120 bucks Don't skimp on something so cheap that can keep you from a lifetime of tinnitus/ear damage.
Though I don't ride motorcycles (well not yet anyway😏),but please buy yourself ear plugs cause hearing a constant ringing noise for days months or in my case years it gets so annoying yes you learn to live with it but it so annoying
@@obliviondio True, they can offer ample protection. The pro's are the price and ability to dampen sound. The cons are the fit, for many people they get dislodged over time which you cant ajust when wearing a helmet. And the dampening is quite unnatural and can even overdampen (not hearing enough of your surroundings for danger detection). Custom plugs are molded to your ear, and offer superior fit. Also a lot customfit plugs offer multiple filters which offer protection while still allowing for correct situational awareness. They last for years as well, so if you are a daily rider, the extra cost over time of use will be negligible for a better use experience. All just my opinion of course
@@GL0BETREKKER If the dampening of sound from wearing foam plugs hinders your awareness then the rider isn't using their eyes as they should nor are they paying attention to their surroundings to begin with. People with absolute hearing loss drive vehicles and make due just fine because they always look around. It's just the same as the fallacy with thinking that having a loud exhaust makes drivers aware of you. I like home theater audio and cherish my hearing which is very sensitive to loud noises. I've purchased a few filtered plugs and none of them decrease the overall noise except for foam earplugs. While wearing these I've grown accustomed to turning my head a lot to recognize what is around me. I drive in the city and highways of Miami and Orlando just fine. The issue I have with filtered plugs is that it blocks a certain frequency but not the entire range of frequencies. Therefore the wind noise and perhaps the helmet speakers at a high volume will still cause hearing loss from the frequencies that the filters do not block.
Omg thank you so much! I was starting to outgrow the tampons where I normally put them. I have a huge supply for how often I use them. You a life saver!
I wear those "high fidelity ear plugs" when I started riding. It lowers the decibel by 20-30 but still allow you to hear the outside more clearly than regular earplugs. I also wear these whenever I go to some place loud. I can still listen to other people and talk to them. Just make sure they FIT in your ear and feel good! Comfort is important if you ride a lot.
I'm a new rider. I was really hesitant to use earplugs. Main reason being I want to hear traffic. Then I thought to myself, driving a car blocks out a lot of sound as well and I never once felt it impaired my driving ability or awareness. Finally gave simple foam earplugs a go. The ride felt much more comfortable. Also no problems listening to direction with the Cardo. And I could still get a sense of traffic around me.
I hope Suzuki comes out with the baddest Gixxer ever and call it "The Adobo." 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks again for the info. I've only been riding for about 11 months, and I've recently started using hearing protection. Just the foam joints, BUT it's night and day when it comes to blocking out wind noise.
If you have a good helmet it helps a lot, just open your visor and see how much louder your bike is as opposed to when it’s closed.. if it fits right and the visor has a good seal you’re good, I have a CBR with a Project SC racing exhaust and I run it without the Baffle you can literally hear my bike coming a solid 10 minutes before you see it and I barely hear it inside my helmet..
I've got the motorcycle ear plugs, the race, and the touring... Hell, it's THE best thing I've done!!! You'll know, because when you're laying in bed, after a long ride, there's a light ringing in the ear. Trust me, motorcycle ear plugs are totally worth it!! Safe riding to all, a big hello from Madrid, Spain 😊
I think he meant reduce the noise to 85 dB or less. Some of the best plugs only reduce / block 29 to 33 dB. Even if you add muffs over those which you wouldn't under a helmet those only provide 22 to 34 dB nrr *(noise reduction rating) so combined you still can't get below 85db.
ok this is what i thought, thanks for commenting. just a sidenote, i think i read a while back that combining plugs and muffs doesn't even add the NRRs! so you're stuck with like
Been riding for a couple years and i always wear them when im going over 45. Im also used to wearing them at work. Most of the people who say they cant hear anything with them on just aren't used to them, and try to justify never wearing them.
When I first started riding I couldn’t stand how loud the wind was so I been wearing ear plugs for a while now. They cheap n you can get em almost anywhere
Get some high fidelity concert ones and it’s a game changer. Not only do they protect hearing but they drastically reduce fatigue on long rides. They’re also surprisingly great for feeling calmer. Excessive noise actually increases your stress level. It’s sort of wild how much better you feel walking through a crowd or city with some of the hustle and bustle toned down.
It's rediculous that using earplugs is illegal here in Québec. When I ride with earplugs, it's actually easier to hear sirens and horns because I'm not deafened by wind noise - especially with motorcycle specific earplugs which are tuned specifically to block wind noise.
I started using alpine moto safe ear pro and I feel more focused on the road despite still listening to music from my intercom. I cannot imagine riding without them nowadays, dbkiller or not - they're a must and they don't block as much sounds from the speakers as I was thinking they would
Pressure variations inside the helmet go from positive to negative several times a second. The rider does not notice because it happens so quickly. Those variations are silent killers to the eardrums. Simple foam plugs will reduce that impact significantly by reducing the amplitude of the peaks. And, no, your hearing is not significantly reduced.
I use mack’s silicone ear plugs; they’re designed for being comfortable to sleep with them inserted and it doesn’t block out that much noise, but it blocks out enough. You can also wash and reuse them.
when you buy a helmet it will often tell you how many decibels it either blocks out or let's through. there's also tests on RUclips where you can check out how loud or quiet your helmet is :) I used to have a flip-up adv Helmet back when I first started, it was from LS2 so you can imagine how bad it fit. After hearing about how bad road noise actually is, I got myself an Airoh Commander to stray away from the flip-up design, and to have a more aerodynamic and well fitting helmet. I can only reccomend!
I liked using high end low profile ear buds but with foam tips. It provides great sound isolation, good tunes, buuuuttt if your device has an audio passthrough mode you hear surroundings without the wind noise and tuned down engine noise. It really made a difference for me. Might spend a fair bit of cash, plus the tips... but overall i was happy.
I use earplugs all the time in addition to listening to music from my Sena. Just adjust the depth of the plug. Shove the plug into the drum or slightly into it. Sometimes it could take a couple of try's to get it right. Like , Put on your helmet. Pulls on earplug , try again. Shove earplug deeper into drum and put on you helmet. Earplug gets slightly snagged and now it's perfect. You could listen to music , hear traffic and protect your hearing.
For sure after 8 years with my Two Brothers full T exhaust with shorty muffler on my gixxer amongst other toys , I can’t hear much but the constant ringing in my ears …
Trust me people, protect you ear. I had a loud bike doing deliveries all day. I know "why have a loud bike to do deliveries" its how I bought it, was looking for a silencer for it. Anyway my ear got bad after for a about 3 months for the 2 weeks in had the bike for. It was not even a bike bike, it was a scooter. Ear protection is important
I hoard single use foam plugs that are free at my work. They are made to block only some of the noise because you cant be deaf in workplace and after giving it a go for a short ride just to try them, I dont ride without them anymore and I have 2 pairs on me all the time. Second best thing I get for working after paycheck ofc
when riding short distances I didn't wear earplugs. rode about 100km without putting in my earplugs and then riding the 100km back using them there was a major difference it was a lot more comfortable and I didn't stress about not hearing cars behind me or any other things you need to listen to. wear earplugs save your ears!
In ear headsets with active noise cancelling, you can connect via Bluetooth to your phone so you can take calls whilst riding , or to your smart watch for weather and traffic reports or to 2 way radio to communicate with a friend and so on .
I'm a slow rider behind a big windshield, I dont plan on going on many highways, EVER, at most 45-50, if I ever get a bike better than 50cc I'll look into it
Thanks for making this video adobo. I've only started riding a few months ago and I've already gotten mild hearing loss and tinnitus. No one warned me about the wind noise, now its too late😢
GSXR 600 was the first bike that stood out to me. Your gixxer jokes crack me up. Almost make me wanna steeer away from ever getting one 😂. Almost, almost…
Some of that hearing loss remains permanent, because inner ear nerves and the microscopic hair responsible for picking up different frequencies, don't fully regenerate from hearing trauma. The hearing damage is cumulative, so protect your hearing guys.
to clarify, you only need to block 20-30dB to protect your hearing - my EarPeace plugs are -24 dB, and I can still hear my exhaust, horns, sirens, et cetera...
I know I really shouldn't do this, but I get somewhat bored riding normally on long stretchs, so my go-to solution has been to just wear my wireless earbuds (Galaxy Buds in my case) under the helmet with the touch function disabled. It blocks a lot of the wind noise but I can still hear the engine and cars around me and it has the added bonus of being able to listen to music. It is technically "distracted riding" in most juristictions so do it at your own risk, but I've never had any trouble from the law doing this.
When I was in high-school I but these ear plugs that were meant for drumming when I was doing that, and they say don't use for shooting, so I did it anyways and it works perfectly fine. Use them for riding too and they work great. They're called Earasers, check em out.
what should i be looking for that only cuts out the wind noise? i'd like to have a real nice sound system on my bike, but also not destroy my ears from the wind.
At a speed of 130 km/h for 20-30 mins our ears already develop permanent ear damage, under most motorcycle users (around 60%) who do NOT wear ear protection whilst driving everyday have a 50% higher chance of tinitus (a constant ring in your ear) i did an research about it. Wear earplus guys, good ones filter most of the wind sound out and yes you still hear the traffic and your precious exhaust noises…

@@koopspook which is actually stupid! His hubris us so uncanny! He should lay off this GSXR taunt! It's childish and detracting from any useful info he might be giving. Adobomoto GROW UP!!!!
I'd recommend spending a nice amount of money on hearing protection. You could buy ear plugs that lower noise, but don't muffle the sound, which means you can still hear everything going on around you. Don't give up your hearing, it never comes back, not even after expensive surgeries.
i never thought that much about ear plugs untill i went to the track with a track oriented helmet and forgot to bring my plugs. now i make sure i always have two sets in case i forget one
I don’t ride, but I do shoot. I wonder if you get some electronic ear pro (the small in-ear ones, not the over-ear/earmuff styled ones), if it would give you the best of both worlds. Block out the loud noises and buffeting wind, but maintain awareness and being able to hear others. They’re pretty sick, I can hear people whisper across the room. My sis-in-law is deaf and uses hearing aids. I gave her one of my electronic ear pro (over-ear styled) to try and she was blown away because she was never able to tell the direction of sounds, so her being able to tell where someone was speaking from blew her mind. IDK if it will do the same while wearing inside a helmet on a bike, but worth a shot 🤷🏽♂️
Lmao that’s too funny but tbh jokes aside , I was riding to work last week and I thought my sena was malfunctioning and was hearing this loud beeping sound . Like a tone . Then I got off my bike and coworkers started talking and I head it too also when I spoke and it freak the crap out of me . Hearing loss does not run my my family as far as I know but I have been exposing myself to loud noise my entire life. It went away after about six hours but I work with power tools all day as well . I hope this doesn’t come back but Earplugr are a great option . Don’t wait till it’s too late . P.S. I do ride a Suzuki but not a gixxer so I’ll be buying REAL ear plugs lmao 😂
One thing mot mentioned is the amount of fatigue you get just from your brain having to work to process all that noise. Do an hour long highway speed ride with and without hearing protection and you will be very surprised to see how much of a difference ear pro makes in how tired you are after a ride
As someone who has fucked up their ears with concerts and loud headphones, I always wear earplugs. I even got custom moulded plugs. I've got mild tinnitus and it sucks!

Hearing loss does not run my my family as far as I know but I have been exposing myself to loud noise my entire life. It went away after about six hours but I work with power tools all day as well . I hope this doesn’t come back but Earplugr are a great option . Don’t wait till it’s too late . P.S. I do ride a Suzuki but not a gixxer so I’ll be buying REAL ear plugs lmao 😂
Arai Signet-X with Sena 50c and some Harmon Cardies. Full blast music.
Thanks for reminding me man. I have a yoshi RS5 on my 600cc and I jabe to do highway trip soon, so I'll need those 😅
If it means never hearing you again, bring it
I've never had a problem with my Shoei helmets. Never had buffeting wind noise in all my years but I've always heard that white noise is the worst.
You're a funny guy talking about Suzuk all the time
I did iron butt challenge before and regret for not wearing earplug..
i have some low profile bluetooth headphones to drown out the wind noise and they work amazing while giving me some music to listen to
Jokes on you my ear plugs now double as a bandage in case if an accident
I use ear buds instead of using those terrible speakers that come with your cardo. Better music no hearing loss win win
Gsxr riders don’t wear ear plugs, we’re too busy listening to lady gaga on full blast like laa laa ou lala
I was thinking of using ear protection like the 3M Peltors (in-ears) usually used around shooting guns.
One thing mot mentioned is the amount of fatigue you get just from your brain having to work to process all that noise. Do an hour long highway speed ride with and without hearing protection and you will be very surprised to see how much of a difference ear pro makes in how tired you are after a ride
I need a back story with him and gxers
As someone who has fucked up their ears with concerts and loud headphones, I always wear earplugs. I even got custom moulded plugs.
I've got mild tinnitus and it sucks!
I ride a Gixxer and I can say, tampons work great for hearing protection when they aren't in my mussy.
