Just to note if you are getting the "grey" one...it's not actually grey as in the pictures..it's more like navy with a hint of grey.

Noted.

How is the sizing on this if I may ask? Looking for a pair of pants also since I have my own armor.

The reviews, some say true to size and others say 1 size or 2 size down from actual measurement?

To be honest, buying stuff online is hard to judge. Some size them Asian size, some gwailo size. The measurement chart sometimes could be off.

But this seller seem to have sizes that more closely fit me. So to me it's true to size. YMMW.

10/10 would recommend to every rider. Gave my friend a set, she used it first leg of the ride. Second leg too lazy to put on and she said OMG made crazy ass difference. That’s with a modular. I ride with a full face. Would not ride without it.

The faster you go, the bigger the difference.

Foam plugs mute almost everything. I traded mine for concert/musician earplug. It has noise filter. Doesn't block everything cuts most bass and some highs. For me I felt I can hear horns better than foam plugs. Still compared to no earplug sound will felt muted.

Not for me. It was just so much more comfortable where the wind noise is drastically reduced. Mine are 3M foamies.

I have been using 3M yellow foamies. The yellow ones are quieter than the orange ones. But it's not a big diffence. Have silicon ones but the foamies are still the most comfortable.

With my rpha70 and foamies, wind noise becomes a non issue, hardly hear any wind noise if my wind deflector is adjusted to the high position..

However, I prefer not to use earplugs in city riding just because I want to hear traffic better. Besides, the Rhpa 70 is already a very quiet helmet (it is as quiet without earplugs than my MT Atom with earplugs) so I just make do without them in daily city commute and only use them for longer highway rides.

when I ride fast I wear earplugs, when not fast, I don't wear earplugs
when outstation or touring, definitely bring them

my bikes stock muffler also I notice it will help me in many ways
less fatigue riding long distance

acoustic earplugs are good option

city riding wise, awareness depends on person, also if the bike oredi loud AF, then wear earplugs or not won't affect much since the exhaust is a mini-concert liao

disagree... my exhaust is loud AF... n the wind noise can drown out the exhaust alot... i wear earplugs mainly for wind noise but at the same time exhaust is reduced quite significantly.

Same here. Exhaust noise doesn’t feel as painful as the constant wind noise.

Wind noise really tiring and wears me down. Exhaust is not as loud but still rumbles when I twist the go fast handle.

Oh for.city riding bahahahaha

I dont usually wear for city ride...but the times that i have...the earplugs still makes a difference...especially when ur next to a wall or a car where the sound of the exhaust can bounce back to you.

Awareness wise, i try to use my eyes more than my ears....too many environmental noise
