MotoSafe Pro

I bought the two pack Pro because I really wasn’t sure what I’d like for my bike. I ride a stock Indian Roadmaster so it’s not a loud VTwin. I wear an LS2 Advant II helmet. I absolutely love these ear plugs. They are easy to put in, they don’t try to pop out when I put my helmet on or take it off, and they reduce noise tremendously. When you first wear them you’ll think they aren’t doing much but you’ll find that you can hear your music at a lower volume and hear your pipes with minimal wind noise. Also, I’ve always hated wearing ear plugs, but after a few rides you forget they are there. For highway I wear the reds and around town the blacks although they both work great in either scenario. If my wife is a passenger she also likes them because she is above the wind screen or I’m not blocking wind if she’s looking around. They allow her to hear the pipes or the music too. She also likes the fact that it doesn’t take me a week for my hearing to recover after long rides. Last week, I was sold after a 2 hour highway ride with truck and car traffic, buffeting wind at various times, and I got home with no ear fatigue.

Really good in blocking wind noise and very comfortable.

The 20db plugs work! I have tried the generic foam ear plugs, nonoise, and eargasm, and these Alpine plugs definitely make a noticeable reduction in wind noise on my Ducati Diavel Strada. I haven't tried the 17db units yet but I like having more silence and I'm willing to bet these would be about the same as the other ear plugs I've tried. I definitely recommend them for good hearing protection and if they need replacing these 20db units are what I'll purchase. The carrying case is pretty but quite unrealistic for motorcyclists -- it's too large and basically requires to be stored in a pocket. I actually use my nonoise cylinder to carry my Alpines as that can be easily attached to my main zipper or a pocket zipper. The ear plugs fit in it perfectly. So for being marketed for motorcyclists in a case that was clearly not designed by a motorcycle rider. I don't ride with music playing and certainly don't wish to be distracted by talking on a smart phone so I cannot comment on how effective they are with external comms. I have slightly smaller ear canals and they fit fine. No discomfort at all, even under a snug Arai helmet. If they got rid of the ear plug cleaner (just use rubbing alcohol) that doesn't even fit in the carrying case, the packaging plastic tray, and used a smaller and more practical carrying case then the cost could be dropped. Right now I think it is a bit spendy for what one gets, even accounting for two different pairs of protection. I've read the reviews on durability so we'll see how that goes. So far so good! One star deducted due to higher cost and because the carrying case totally missed the motorcycle usage mark.

Just the right amount of noise reduction imo. I bought the pro version and use the high filter red ones and like them a lot more than the loop ear plugs I've been using. These are more comfortable in my opinion and the tips dont fall off. Try em out I think youll like them. You can still here the engine of your bike, still hold a conversation, and hear everything else around you. It also doesnt feel too quiet if that makes sense.

Nice case and cleaner. Plugs fit well, but only came with one size. Make sure you look at fit before purchase. No issues with them falling out while riding with a helmet. Wind noise is noticeably reduced.

Great ear plugs. Essential for riding on freeway and/or above 60+ mph. If you regularly find yourself at speeds above 100 mph, these are a no-brainer. To work effectively, you must use the applicator tube, and really sink then into your ear canal. Once they are inserted properly, they stay put. Wind noise is reduced significantly. Music volume is lowered, but can still be heard. Would be nice if they included more than 1 applicator. If you lose yours like I did, a straw that is about the same size as the tip works great.

I used the red ones for motorcycle riding. I've had them since 2021 have mixed reviews. First the negatives- these plugs need to be perfectly inserted into the ear canal or they allow noise to transmit around them which is terrible if just one of them is not inserted properly; you'll know after a few minutes of riding because the balance of the noise will be to one side. You'll need to stop and adjust them. This is an ergonomic issue and nothing to do with the product itself. Second, the tail on the exterior side of the plug, at least for me, needs to be inserted at the top of the ear canal so as to allow the ability to grip the tail for removal of the earplug. This is very important; I struggled for quite a while trying to grab the tail when it was inserted down along the bottom of the ear canal. Third, after about 100 or so uses, the tail snapped off with the plug still in the ear. This was all bad. Thankfully, I was able to get my fingernail wedged into the body of the plug to dig it out, scratching my ear with my fingernail. Not fun. The noise cancelling was acceptable but would rather have a higher NRR/SNR rating than 21. Only because I have Michelin Anakee Wild tires on my motorcycle and they howl like nobody's business on the street and hard surface dirt roads above 40mph. Overall a good product except for the broken tail. Would like a higher NRR/SNR.

Originally I gave this 5 stars - but after more use, it gets 2. The problem is the daily experience, divided into two main issues: 1) The carry case 2) the plug design. First, the carrying case - This thing is a disaster. It's a small foamy ~ 2.5" x 2.5" zip case with two sides. On one side, you have a small plastic 'pouch' that is only for the inserter tool. The other side is just an open cavity that holds both sets of plugs. And therein lies the problem - you *WILL* lose plugs because there's no individual cavities that you would insert the plug into - it's literally an empty 'smaller square' where 4 plugs rest loosely. For motorcycle riders. If you're not careful about opening the case, they're going to drop everywhere. Horrible, horrible design and lazy. Why not just make 4x cavities for each plug to snugly rest? Second - the plug design. The 'grab handle' to remove the plug is WAY TOO SMALL. I have literally had the plug get stuck in my ear because I couldn't grab the 'handle' (which is tiny) with my bare hands -- so here I am using my motorcycle key to dig an earplug out of my ear. This is silly, folks. Then, for best effect, you have to use this plastic 'cap' to insert-and-twist the plug. They fit great and are comfortable - but going back to the case design, you WILL lose this insert tool. It's not held very well in the silly 'pouch' in the case. So, while I like how these plugs actually perform, they have a VERY BAD day-to-day user experience. Extremely annoying. I've just gone back to silicone reusables.

They worked so much better than I imagined. It has made my riding experience so much more enjoyable. I would highly recommend these items.

Parfait. Les bouchons sont fournis avec une petite sacoche et deux jeux d’embouts (Race & Touring), ce qui permet d’adapter selon l’usage. Utilisés pendant 4 heures de route : ils s’insèrent facilement grâce à l’embout fourni, restent confortables et ne provoquent aucune gêne. Côté efficacité, c’est validé. Ils atténuent bien le bruit du vent dans le casque, tout en permettant de mieux profiter du son du Cardo semble même d’améliorer le son, qui devient plus clair et plus net.

Le indosso sempre quando in moto nei tragitti autostradali per affaticare meno le orecchie. Ho preso la versione comprensiva delle cuffie sia rosse che nere. Il modello rosso filtra meno i rumori, quello nero invece attutisce maggiormente il suono. Solitamente uso il rosso per brevi tratti autostradali e il nero quando i viaggi sono più lunghi e di conseguenza tende a stancare maggiormente le orecchie. In linea generale si sente il motore, si sente bene l'interfono e anche la musica. Non aspettatevi di sentire interfono o voci nitidamente come essere a orecchie libere e fermi al semaforo con motore al minimo. Il suono viene decisamente attutito quindi fruscii del vento, motore e musica si sentono sempre ma non raggiungono quei picchi o quelle frequenze che, arrivato a destinazione, ti fanno fischiare le orecchie. Ascoltando la musica a volte si fatica a capire il brano che viene riprodotto in sottofondo e ci si sente un po come l'uomo gatto a sarabanda ma ovviamente è impensabile possa essere diversamente (soprattutto con le cuffie nere, le più performanti). Nonostante il parabrezza protettivo del BMW GS 1200, per me che sono alto, i fruscii sono sempre molto fastidiosi. Devo dire che ora, dopo un viaggio di 3/4 ore arrivo decisamente più riposato, soprattutto se, con le valigie montate, il suono dello scarico viene amplificato. Ero assolutamente scettico ma devo dire che funzionano e sono contento dell'acuisto. Non c'è la possibilità di cambiare i gommini in base alla "taglia" dell'orecchio ma devo dire che sono morbide e leggere per cui non penso altri possano avere questa necessità. Attenzione però, le cuffie devono essere indossate seguendo una tecnica che permette di infilarle correttamente in modo che sigillino l'orecchio e svolgano il loro lavoro per cui leggete le istruzioni che sono in allegato.

Positiv: Zwei Dämpfungsstärken, beide funktionieren mit einem Sena wunderbar. Je nachdem, wie man sie ins Ohr einführt, hört man entweder gar keine Motor- und Windgeräusche in der höchsten Dämpfungsstufe (aber dennoch die Sprache vom Sena), bis hin zur leichten Dämpfung, die mir häufig schon genügt. Es wird kein Druck im Ohr aufgebaut, wie es bei vielen Ohrstöpseln der Fall ist. Gerade bei langen Autobahnfahrten sind diese Ohrstöpsel ein Segen, man fährt viel entspannter und kommt entspannter an. Kann sie nur empfehlen. Die Einführhilfe ist so simpel wie genial. Negativ: Eigentlich nichts, außer dass sie sich - wie es in der Natur der Sache bei kleinen Dingen liegt - hervorragend im Tankrucksack verstecken, wenn man mal das Etui nicht richtig geschlossen hat. Das Herausholen aus dem Ohr ist manchmal knifflig, wenn man sie falsch eingeführt hat.

Excellent ear plug, premium quality, very useful. But the price is high for 4 pieces of rubber in box.
