I have a mp3 player and use a pair of Koss Earbuds...I think they are pretty comfortable.

I've started wearing earplugs too. Wind noise at highway speeds started to hurt, and my ears would ring after riding at speed.
So, not wanting to damage my hearing, I started with the plugs. Very comfortable, I can still hear everything I need to, and wayyyyy less fatigue after."The problem with most motorcycles is the nut that connects the seat to the handlebars."

i took those wireless headphones i had apart last night, and they are not going to work
the speakers are soldered into the circuit board for the radio transmitter. i'm going to try to sepererate it, but it looks pretty complicated. i don't have high hopes for this little project."he who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pains of being a man"- Dr. Gonzo

I don't currently ride with earphones but I plan to once I can get my 5gig Creative Zen MP3 player off layaway! I know the argument about legalities and distractions, but like anything you can either choose to be responsible and keep the music to a low or crank it up so you can't hear the guy honking that's about to hit you.Only a warrior chooses pacifism; others are condemned to it.

that's why i am not sure if this is going to work. The speakers are attached to the circuit board with about 1/2" of wire, which is a VERY Thin gauge. I'm going to try to just rip it off, and solder some thicker wire on the leads on the circuit board. Then, i'm going to mount the circuitry in a box on the back of my helmet.
if all goes well, i'll be able to keep my mp3 player under the seat, with the headphone receiver plugged into my bike's electrical system. then, i'll have a switch on my helmet to turn my speakers on, and my mp3 player will automatically turn on with my bike. all wireless!"he who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pains of being a man"- Dr. Gonzo

Remeber though Pyro, one the bike is going, voltage goes up from 12V to like 14V or somewhere in that range. It burned out Corey's garage door opener because of the flux.Kan-O-Gixxer!
