Ear Protection under Motorcycle helmet
We are long distance touring motorcylists who wear open face helmets with face shields. We use ear plugs usually but are discovering that all day use hurts the ears. I have investigated passive ear muffs but find that they do not fit well under a helmet. I have also investigated noise cancelling systems, which work very well by themselves, that is without a helmet but again do not easily fit inside a helmet. And at any rate, the noise sampling microphones are covered, which defeats the purpose. I am asking for help in finding either a passive system which would fit inside a helmet or a noise canceling system which would fit inside a helmet, or other ideas which might work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
