Helmet too noisy

[jetjock]

Jetjock, quick thank you for your post, I've always worn foam plugs in the past, having read the details from your post I went & bought a pair of £20 Auritech's. Wow, I couldn't believe the difference, clarity of what you need to hear and way less of all the other noise, including the Anakees when doing long motorway hauls, very impressed, cheers!

I'm glad to be of service . I was exactly the same until auritech s were recommended to me by a fellow rider . I don't use any think else now . ( sorry for sounding like an advert for the said ear plugs ) they work very well with an intercom too

I've only gone and bought a arai tour x4 detour with a drift ghost s camera on top and a set of £100 custom fit passive ear plugs... Happy days.. Cheers lads for the help and advice

Micky on here makes bespoke earplugs, which is where i got mine.

How are you finding your new Arai? I was lucky enough to have custom made noise cancelling ear plugs made whilst shooting for the RN and I'm guessing like me a lot of people don't put the foam ones in correctly until shown how. It makes a noticeable difference to their performance.

I have both a Shark Evo 3 for the commutes and better weather and an old Shoei XR1000 for the longer trips or shitty weather.

I always use ear plug anyway for either lid.

I love the arai, it's great that it's so comfortable and as a glasses wearer, really easy to put on specs.... I've just put a drift ghost s camera on her and also fitted a interphone f4mc.. Which is ok... Not very loud and not very clear... Wish I'd gone for a sena now..... But the helmet is awesome.. Lots of features

I have had your set up and the F4 is plenty load enough. I turned the auto volume control off which helps a lot. Also, they are very sensitive to the positioning of the speakers...small movements can make a bog difference. I can hear my pillion fine at over 80 BUT I do also have an MRA x screen fitted to my GSA TC which also makes a big difference to noise levels.

small movements can make a bog difference.

My proctologist agrees.
