Re: Ear plugs and full lids...

Alan, I have the same problem, I have been to so many rock/metal concerts with no earplugs and shot so many guns the same way, that I can't even sleep in a totally quiet room because the ringing in my ears is so loud.

But on the Full-face helmet with no earplugs deal, I wouldn't advise it, I have heard from many sources that the constant noise, even the lower sustained noise in a Full face will cause hearing damage over the long term, Also I read one time that ANY time you hear something so loud that it makes your ears ring you have caused permanent hearing damage on some level or another, if that is true then I am truly F@#ked.
