[QUOTE="BakerBoy, post: 1216221, member: 87581"] Interesting data that all your measurements were above 90dB! I suspected as much, but hadn't seen data. In the workplace OSHA mandates hearing protection at 90dB TWA for 8 hr to avoid permanent damage. Most of us often ride longer than 8hrs and experience > 90dB throughout, risking permanent damage. I wear NRR 33 Howard Leight earplugs, and that helps immensely (note that the NRR rating doesn't guarantee that noise reduction if they do that fit tight and seal well). [/QUOTE]
