I've got some Phillips ($30) that I like, but they don't fit well under my helmet.

I tried using my ipod while riding once. I didn't like it too much. I felt like my equilibrium was off because I had something in my ears and I couldn't hear my engine the way I'm use to hearing it. Never again.

I'm gonna start wearing ear plugs more often. I just read an article in one of the mags about the dB of wind noise alone. At 100mph the wind noise can be the equivalent of a chain saw.

Plus, I've got inner ear problems.

Chatterbox is the best for me.
I do have Shure plugs as well, but my last pair was ruined when I used them under my helmet a few times, so I don't use them when I ride anymore.

No thanks on the Chatterbox. Maybe someday cruising across country, but no the way I ride now.

The cool thing about chatterbox is that you can intercept and/or become part of some jackass driving down the road's cell phone conversation... happened to a guy I was riding with a while ago... it was funny, he started talking shit to the guy...

I get some interference, but not a lot.
I love the fact that my friends and I can chat with each other when were riding long distances.
As long as were within 2 miles or so, depending on where we are riding.

Yeah, this guy said it had never happened to him before, but we were riding behind some slow ass car through the twisties, so it was perfect...

It'd be cool using a chatterbox on the track. talking mad shit to your buddies.
