I also sometimes use some earbuds with my mp3 player that do a good job of cutting the wind noise out and allow me to listen to tunes when on long boring slab rides. BTW I have put over 10,000 miles on my '83 Honda GL650I since I got it in March this year. One trip to Georgia, another to Minnesota and general riding around. I am leaving on a trip to Georgia again in a week and then one to Vermont when I return.
well i dug up my plugs and went for a ride, i was not pleased, could not hear any thing, except the wind noise. pretty much drown out every thing and i dont like that. you need to be able to hear whats going on around you.
