Hi,
I have over the years managed to damage my hearing and now have some hearing loss and tinnitus.
Most of it is probably work related (Power Stations and construction industry) although I am sure motorcycles, shooting and music has also played a part. My fault entirely.
Can I at this point encourage everyone to take hearing protection seriously, it really isn't nice to lose even a small amount of your hearing, and tinnitus is a right bastard.
Lecture over, Problem number two is that wearing ear plugs on the bike gives me ear infections, clean and new plugs each time but 3 infections this year now and a fourth just starting I think.
My Caberg flip helmet is quite noisy and I am wondering if anyone can recommend a replacement that's quiet enough to be able to safely go without ear protection. I realise different helmets suit people depending on any number of factors, but are any brands particularly known for being quiet?
Cheers all
