They're illegal in my state, as they are in most. Well, actually it's illegal to wear two. I think one is okay. I wear earplugs. Tried wearing my Etymotics ER6's once but they were uncomfortable.

Addidas put out a new set, they are yellow and they have a special piece aside from the actual but that actually wraps into your ear. They have a yellow Kevlar cord. 89 dollars at your local Best Buy electronics store, 45 dollars if you have a friends who works there 
They work so well that when i was being pulled over by the local PD for doing a slight wheelie(part me/ part SH badass torque) i didnt hear him yelling at me over the loudspeaker (literally yelling) see he got mad because i wasnt listening, but i was, just not to him. So anyways illegal or not, if you get pulled over quick tip, PULL ONE BUD OUT.

If all I drove on were roads that required a lot of on and off the throttle or shifting I would love to listen to the bike but as it has D&D exhaust and I travel a lot of highway I prefer to listen to music rather than have my brain beaten into submission by the constant roar.
By the way I use earpieces that have an arm that wraps around the back of your ear.

i use the one sthat came with my samsung galaxy s. ive tried cheapy bud and they hurt my ears. the ones that came with my sony x10 were ok, the galaxy s ones fit great, i rocked them for about 2 straight hours yesterday with no discomfort. i just put the phone onto level 12 of 15 and that way i still hear the bike and the music

I managed
I took apart a set of shooting ear muffs and installed the foam in my helmet. Then installed the speakers from my x2 chatter box inside that. its a lot better and you don't have to deal with pugs falling out or yak'n the cord. fyi its little tight on your ears getting it on and off but well worth it. Use fabric glue to hold everything in place. most earmuffs have the plastic covering the foam.. Use it.
