Re: Ear Plugs
Bit late as you have already ordered some but I use Alpine Motosafe, to be honest I have used Alpines for years in my band as like Nutz have a bit of tinnitus and they were a revelation when I found them, relatively cheap, about £20, but they don't muffle anything, they have ...

Re: Ear Plugs
I've used nothing except Howard Leight Laser Lites on the bikes for years, I find they cut the white noise of air turbulence and mechanical noise from the bike whilst I can still hear the creamy note of the engine/exhaust and the traffic around me. Plus they're ...

... disposables is that you don't have to clean them, cleaning my good ear buds is bad enough. Also at that price I can buy enough to last me for 5 years or more for the price of custom made re-usable's.

So, should I get ...

Re: What did you do to your bike today ??
Doubled it's 2017 years mileage.
Wasn't hard only had to do 100 miles to achieve that but boy was it good to be on above again.
I've missed it and need it tbh.
I was a bitten wooden with plenty of cobwebs to blow off but the ride was good and so was the company.

As I said to Mick today, I am spoilt with the choice I made going from the Double R three years ago, and finding it hard to find a bike to get me off it.
