Make sure you pull the straps outwards before you put the helmet on, the helmet will have a small amount of give and should be enough to clear your ears, saying that not sure how big your ear are !!

Cheers for the advice all. My lid is slightly uncomfortable so isnt the best size for my weird head and flaps. I love the fit of Arai and shark but cant afford the price tag so I will just have to make do for a while longer. Used to have long hair and that worked well but i am lucky if grows now so that is out. Swimming cap is great idea but prone to strange looks and giggles. The plugs I am using now are the most comfortable ever and they are the ones where you buy the silicone and mould them yourself but shift when you put the helmet on and cant get them back in correctly without taking the helmet off again. Catch 22. I think I either need to go to Florida (are you paying WR6133) or go for a full balaclava and try that. Regarding the size of my ears, well you could land a dumbo on them and I have to make sure I dont run anywhere otherwise i get airborn. Love the idea of letting them hang out of precut holes but they might get cold. STAPLES made me laugh but remind me never to meet your wife Nano in case she tries. Cheers for all your advice.
What about growing hair out of your ears and platting it up over your head??
When I win the lottery I'll get you a ticket to Florida though personally I'll be off to Colorado they may have helmet laws but they also have a very liberal attitude to other things.
I sympathise with the weird head thing, my ears are ok but my head is an odd shape and I struggle with lids fitting properly.

Tights. Just remember to take them off before doing any banking
Hey Coney do you always remember to remove your gloves from inside your helmet before putting it on ???
Of course I do Swanny as my hands get cold.
WR6133 don't forget me when you're rich
Burbler, I want it now. It's perfect but what is the SHARP rating ;O)
Kevinb, with my memory I'll be in jail by the end of the week.
Maybe try a flip front as when you pull the straps out there is far more give in the helmet to fit your ears in.
