That is just stunning, love the clutch cover, the wheels oh and the paint is lovely, that affect on the grey is really good, i think maybe my bike should come and live with you for a few months

Personally I've had no issues with shrinkage.
Wow that sounds dodgy!
Well dodgy, its the cold apparently lol, to be honest the shrinkage part is mainly relevant to hearing aids, we use this material to take a mould of the ear and make a hearing from it which has to be a really snug fit

Leacture over.... Dont stop I am very interested in what you are saying. One canal is bent and they are both not the biggest so that the normal amount of wax can be an issue. I thought the whole point of the mold plugs is that it dosent go down the canal but more like caps the enterance. I have also looked in to the Docs pro plugs non vented as they do not go down. http://www.earplugshop.com/docs-progplugs-clear-vented-ear-plugs.html and then got side tracked to the mold your own which you have now put me off
One of the problems with the diy moulded ones is that the material does shrink over time, usually starts around 6 weeks, you can just mould them as a stop but then that will block your ear canal completely, again if you suffer from wax, not a good idea. The Doc plugs are designed for swimming, yes they are vented which is better than blocking completely but then you have no noise protection as such. I dont usually get involved in these threads on forums as its such a hornets nest of opinions i have very narrow ear canals too and usually wear the Alpine motor safe plugs, will usually cost you around 20-25 quid from most hearing aid shops or on the internet ( sorry no good at putting links on lol) but at least they are filtered for the right protection and you can rinse them clean.

Because of my stupid cannals wax can be a problem and stuffing foam plugs down is not good for me To be honest if this is the case you shouldnt even consider using the diy kit, you need someone to check where the wax is in your ear before you start pushing it further down with mould material. I work within the audiology industry so i am not just scare mongering, if when you remove the mould after setting you leave any behind the resulting possible infection could be bloody painful and moulds should not really be taken without an otoblock (barrier between the tympanic membrane and the material). I do know that lots of people do this successfully, but just be aware that it isnt risk free, i know the custom made ones are expensive but thats because they are made in a non alergenic material and are filtered to give you protection at the frequencies you need it at a level not to cut you off from the outside enviroment.

From what i have read the guy had his wife and kid in the car, looks like he may have just panicked and felt intimidated, no excuse for hitting the bikers but there do seem to be a lot of conflicting reports about it

I had a bird for 2 years before my beloved Fazer...got to admit its the most awesome enginenI have ever ridden, but it is heavy, I couldn't move it, had to get my OH to shift it around (one of the reasons it had to go) it really is a touring bike, personally I don't think it's great for twisties but mates that have them recon it me, hate to admit it but it's not a bike for a girl let alone a granny lol If I had to choose something else now it would have to be Z1000SX
