Earplugs for Motorcycling – An Affordable Yet Effective Way to Protect Your Hearing and Enhance Riding Comfort
Εξοπλισμός οδήγησης by Takatalo.fi / Antti R., 30.6.2025
The wind noise around your helmet can reach up to 100 dB – just 15 minutes at highway speeds can potentially cause permanent hearing damage.
Whether you're riding a motorcycle, ATV, motocross bike, or snowmobile, earplugs are the simplest and most cost-effective solution to protect your hearing and improve riding comfort.
Why Isn't a Helmet Enough to Protect Your Hearing?
- Air turbulence and wind noise are generated at the edges of the helmet – loud noise reaches your ears even with a high-quality helmet.
- Modern helmets effectively dampen mechanical sounds but do not significantly reduce high frequencies that can damage the inner ear.
- Noise levels increase exponentially with speed; at 120 km/h, it's already about 98 dB.
Benefits of Earplugs for Motor Enthusiasts
- Less "hearing fatigue" – fewer headaches and improved concentration.
- Enhanced riding comfort – even long trips feel lighter.
- Safety – you can still hear traffic sounds, sirens, and engine notes.
- Affordability – the cost of earplugs versus expensive helmet upgrades.

|---|---|---|
| Attenuation Range | Adjustable Tour/Race (17–22 dB) | Variable: 30 dB+ but muffled sound |

How to Choose the Right Attenuation Level?
The Alpine MotoSafe Pro package includes two pairs of filters:
- Tour – For long trips and city traffic, balanced attenuation.
- Race – For high speeds, track riding, and open-face helmets.
By switching filters, you can tailor the earplugs to your riding style and noise level.
You can also purchase MotoSafe earplugs separately, choosing either Race or Tour plugs.
