With spring time in effect and summer soon on its way, many motorcyclists are beginning to be concerned and questioning the co-relation between motorcycles and hearing loss. It is something that we should all be concerned about and if you ride a motorcycle, you should be looking into options on how you can protect yourself from permanently damaging your hearing.

The most common misconception that most riders have, is that if they have a quiet riding motorcycle, or a cruiser, then they are not at risk of hearing loss. This is not true. In fact, the most common source of hearing loss on a motorcycle is wind noise. If you ride a motorcycle, then you are most definitely exposed to wind; therefore, you are at risk of hearing loss. Riding a motorcycle at highway speeds; wind noise can reach as high as 117dB! That is instant damage according to the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety.

Ear plugs are a must for protecting your hearing. The problem with traditional disposable earplugs, is that many people have a hard time with comfort and properly inserting a foam earplug. A custom fitted ear plug is a solution to solving all these issues while protecting your hearing. A custom ear plug is comfortable, easy to insert, durable, fits comfortably under a helmet, and effectively seals the ear canal. This is why custom fitted ear plugs have gained attention and popularity among motorcyclists.
