    Always wear them on longer rides, like ninja i've got a quiet lid but the added bonus of ear plugs just means you get less tired. The downside is when you ride without them you wonder if that noise from the engine was there last time, LOL

    Just spend a quid or so on some from your local bike shop and see how you get on with those. If you like them, then bulk buy a load from ebay.

    The ones enigma uses are good coz they're the ones I nick! Other than making me feel like a deaf mute but I guess that's a good thing :-/

    The other month Bike ran a test on all the different plugs, so if you can get your mitts on that review it might help decide which to go for.

    I tend to find if i wear ear plugs i just end up riding faster coz i can't hear the revs so well. I suppose it could be seen as a good thing rather than bad. I ride everyday and just find ear plugs a pain in the arse, i only really wear them when i do a long trip. But i suppose at the end of the day try em and see what you think.
