I have can hear mine going 90mph and wear ear plugs, should work fine for you. LOL

This is when a good helmet makes a difference though.

I have a Shoei RF1000 (that I don't wear any more) and a Hornet (what I usually wear). The Hornet is quite a bit noisier than the RF1000.

I just mounted everything into my RF1000. Took a little doing and couldnt mount the speakers righ tover my ear canal due ot where the liners snap in, but just sitting around it sounds and feels prety good. I will give it a trial run tonight and tomorrow to see how it does at highway speeds.

I definitely recommend setting up the volumes with earplugs in before mounting the bike. That way you won't run into the situation where you can't hear anything and have to fiddle with it while riding or you get blasted. Either way, ride in a safe place so you have less to deal with while getting it sorted-out! Good luck and be safe!
