Re: [ST] Wind noise

[Erik Miner <Axeis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

How about ear plugs?? I won't ride without them! Makes things nice 
and quiet! Also what wind screen do you have on the bike?? The stock 
low one is a bit noisey.. try the ZG Double Bubble it's a bit quieter 
although ear plugs really are they only way too have real quiet
