Wind Noise

G'day fellow Triumphites.

It is a stinking hot day here in Perth (about 42 degrees C) so a good day for watching the cricket and being on this website.

I have a problem with wind noise especially on long rides. The problem seems to be that the wind whistles up through the underside of the helmet. I have tried ear plugs but I find that they are hard to fit and don't work very well. In the winter time I wear a thick scarf which helps but obviously can't do this in the Summer. I am looking at getting moulded ear plugs which I've heard are much more effective than the "squeeze in place' earplugs . However, maybe other aspects of the problem are my helmet and windcreen. Can anyone offer any advice?
