RLETS, Baby face Sliders, Staintune Slip-on, CB500 Mirrors, smaller led taillight, OEM rear rack, Guhl reflash, handlebar risers, Kawasaki Gaiters.

It looks like it's possible to install speakers: http://www.quietridemuffs.com/installation_speaker.html

I'm not sure if they are included in the $75 or not.

As a follow-up on the Bose 30's, they did help but still the wind noise level was high in my HJC II. My ears were ringing after an hour at 60-70mph.

I don't know why it took me so long to think of it, but I changed the size of the ear pieces to the Large size included in the package and now the noise is at a real tolerable level. The medium size felt fine, but the larges did the trick!

Here's an update that's been long overdue....

I've logged about 16 months of daily use on these qc30. I use this thing every day, not just for riding, but for driving around town, honey do's around the house, operating small gas engines, attending football games, at airports, in-flights, boating...anytime and anywhere there's harsh noise I want cancelled out of my ears.

what's so beneficial about these is that it doesn't need to be inserted INSIDE the ear canal to work. THose earbuds that go inside the canal and expand is too irritating, and after 2-4 hrs, cause inflammation to my sensitive ear canals. As long as they just lightly seal around the outer ear opening, the active noise cancellation goes to work. I can leave my music off, or just playing music at 1/10th volume and can hear a wide sound spectrum. And, I get the same impressive benefits when wearing my two Arai helmets over them. It truly makes riding m/c a pleasure w/ all that wind and road noise cancelled out.

Sadly, my battery stopped charging 2 weeks ago. I'm amazed that it lasted this long considering all the daily charging I did on it. A 50 min charge lasts about 6-8 hrs. I would have thought the plug would be the 1st to go, but it wasn't the plug that failed, it was the battery.

Luckily I bought an extended 2 yr warranty (square trade). So I filed a claim, they sent me a shipping label to retrieve it to do the repair. As I predicted, there's nothing to "repair", as there's no way to get inside of the thing. So while I was away for 10 days riding my dirt bike in another state, my brand new bose qc30 arrived via Fedex. It sat on my door steps for a couple days, spooking my neighbors (& wife) b/c of the stupid bombing that was going on in Austin all last week while I was out.

Since these are new qc30, I have another full 1yr Bose warranty on them. It's nice when warranty claim works out in your favor. It don't always.
