I am puzzled this is loud considering this (almost the same helmet): kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGfUgWOYr85kqKs Perhaps the noise level depends a LOT on the kind of bike?

Please before you talk, have some knowledge , because if not, you confuse people . Let me tell you something for sure you don't know... An airtag could take between 2- 3 h to tell someone that an airtag is close to you.. Those 2-3 h is the time you have to find your stolen motorbike, and I am talking about the minimum time, because could be even more time. Also where do you think the thief will drive your stolen motorbike on those 2-3 h .... ? He will drive to his home or garage... and that last GPS position of that location will be in your mobile even when he remove the airtag. Then please stop to say bad advise

I am surprised that Earpeace did not come out on top. I bought the Alpine’s based on this review, but immediately went back to the Earpeace. To me there was no comparison. Mind you I have not been using the oval shaped ones. The round ones work great.

This is the worst advice I ever heard. I have an Airtag on my Dad's car and I've never seen it not get pinged. iPhones are literally everywhere unless you live in the boonies. And even if a theif gets notified, so what? That'll probably scare them more. Plus they're so inexpensive that you can put 4 tags on the bike if you wanted. Good luck finding all 4 before I'm able to track you down. Other GPS trackers usually have poor battery life and you'll constantly be worried about having to charge it. Plus they usually cost $30/month.

I have to confirm it is quite loud, riding a naked motorbike anything above 60Kph the wind noise is very clear. 1 hour of riding at 100Kph and my ears were ringing. I have been gifted this helmet but I am going to use earplugs to reduce wind noise

For foamies, I think you missed a good option by not including Hearos Xtreme Protection (the soft blue ones). They reduce by 33 dB, and they're soft and comfy. For my son, I cut one plug in half with a razor, & it fits his little ears perfectly.

You wanted to find the "absolute best, full stop, regardless of price" and yet you didn't try the best. I have been using Challenger (Gen I) earmold speakers (from Precision Labs, now Audina) for over 20 years. They are The Bomb for listening to music, hearing my Cardo, etc.. Every time I have gotten a new set of those made, I have also had them make me a set of custom molded ear plugs from the same silicone they use for the earmold speakers. When I just want quiet, with no music or intercom, they are what I use. Custom molded silicone ear plugs are actually the best hearing protection for motorcycle use. In my opinion, of course. Bonus, they last forever. The time limit on them is that human ears gradually change shape a little bit over the years. That is the only real reason to have to get new custom ear molds made. My original Challengers from over 20 years ago still work and I can use them. They just don't fit me and seal quite as well as the new ones I got earlier this year. And, for motorcyclists who want to listen to music or talk on an intercom or phone, custom earmold speakers are by FAR the best way to do that and still protect your hearing. WAY better than even the fancy JBL in-helmet speakers I got with my Cardo.

A year ago, you wrote why airtag isn't good for tracking a motorcycle. You have some interesting arguments but I want to comment (that video is child-proof, so commenting is not possible). 1. The ONLY way Find My app can locate your device is through GPS. There is no other way. Bluetooth is only used to signal between the GPS (phone) and the device. Find My will show the exact place where it was last seen, just as any other map location - IN THE WORLD. 2. How long will a thief look for this device knowing it is "hot"? Police could be chasing you already. Sometimes it takes hours for the notification to actually work. 3. The Airtag can be stripped down even further, and make it very hard to find. It might even look like a part of the circuit board of something already installed. Then, how can a $30 device be a "bad" thing, when it is the ONLY thing that might retrieve your bike back? Curious on your thinking. All the best, regards from / Sweden

Hey there! Some interesting points. Allow me to respond. 1. You say the "ONLY" way it works is with GPS but then say it also uses Bluetooth... I'm unsure of your point here. The airtag uses Bluetooth to connect to a nearby phone which then gives it GPS data, only when an iPhone is near it though. So, to be clear. The airtag does not have GPS. And if there is not an apple product with GPS near it, you are not going to get an updated location. It is a Blutetooth device. Not a GPS device. Simple as that. 2. Good questions, and I don't have the answers. How long? If I was a criminal, I'd probably give myself 5 or so. I bet I could find it in under 5 minutes 6/10 times. The notification timing one is also a very random quantity of time. Some people report that it takes multiple days -- others report it goes off in 10 minutes. Both answers are true. Apple does not seem to have the notification timing down to an exact science. 3. Yes, modification is always a welcome solution to a problem. I have no disagreement here, but in short, you are still attempting to hide a device that I believe underperforms its duties. Let's also consider that this video is more for people who will purchase, install, and feel a false sense of security. Not the McGivers who remove the speaker, tear out the innards, shove it into a blinker relay, then weld it to the frame. The odds for those people are...better. 4. How can a $30 device be bad? It isn't. As I stated in the video, for $30, it might be worth you using it. But we need to reevaluate what it does, what it doesn't, and what the user expects out of it. As for it being the "ONLY" thing that might retrieve your bike, it isn't the only option. There are multiple far better options for vehicle recovery. I'll agree 100% that it is better than nothing, but let's not pretend like it's the only option. Thank you for your comment and greetings from the US. Jacob

​ @JacobBaldry Hi Jacob and thanks for your reply! Correct, there is NO GPS in the Airtag, I only wanted to highlight that the Airtag and similar devices uses GPS data to relay its location. You definitely lose the ability to real-time track an object, but that is ofc the compromise considering size and price. I am using the airtag successfully and think it is a cheap and very practical device, doing its job remarkably well, although as you mentioned - there are several things that has changed that prevents it from being the "ultimate" device for theft-prevention and/or recovery. Thanks again for you reply.

For iPhone users, save your money and buy Gen2 AirPod pros. 100% noise cancelling while listening to your music and any level you desire. Plus, conversation mode and adaptive modes to add option on what you want to accomplish and if you do want to hear some exhaust notes😂. I’ve bought all these eat plugs over time and also had the Sena 50S system,which I completely ripped out once I got the new AirPods Pro. (I also have the 1st Gen AirPods Pro, but it’s night&day difference between the 2)

I have been miserable trying earplugs lately. This is my second season riding, and my first year I never wore plugs at all. I never noticed it being much of an issue at the slower speeds I was going on my CB350 (never more than about 55). This year I stepped up to a CB650 nighthawk and after one ride home from work on the interstate noticed my ears in excruciating pain. I have since developed tinnitus in both ears (I am 30 and have not paid enough attention to this in the past. I certainly don't think it was only because of this one ride, but it has definitely gotten much worse) which is very concerning, so I have been searching like mad for a good set of earplugs so I can enjoy riding again. Most recently I tried the Decibullz - I may need to give them one more try and mold them while wearing my helmet, but so far I have been disappointed. They become dislodged when trying to put the helmet on, and after about 45 minutes of riding my outer ears were in a great deal of pain from the harder plastic. I appreciate the comprehensive video, and I will probably be giving the Alpines a shot.

I’ve been running with the EarPeace plugs for several years. My ear canals are oval shaped and round plugs bug me after a while. I have no problem putting them in properly, so not an issue there. I haven’t tried the Alpines, so no opinion on those. Maybe I’ll give them a try when the EarPeace plugs wear out, although they show no sign of that. What I will say is that it’s amazing how much good plugs reduce ride fatigue, even aside from the hearing protection. You don’t realize how much that wind noise wears on you. 😃
