RE: Earplug usage with loud pipes.
I'm voting psychotic experience, if it is your pipes. I starting wearing ear plugs same as most everyone else because of the wind noise. Plus I think my hair was turning Blond. Tremendous (?) difference with plugs installed, now hair is just turning gray.

I love the sound of the pipes but the wind noise killed me. I tried earplugs but it blocked out too much. At the local dealership i found what they call a speed sock...it's kinda like a doo rag but its made out of t-shirt material and has elastic around the rim. Its perfect...its blocks out all the wind but not the sound of the pipes.
