As far as using them for motorcycling goes, I reckon it makes it worse... I suppose it allowed a more direct transfer of virbrations from helmet, caused by turbulence or whatever, to my ear drums. This could have been caused by wrong size, but bleh... So instead of hearing my bike, those sounds were drowned out by white-noise. Not good.

I was the same with Foam Earplugs, was noisier with the buggers in....
The sound was like you said white-noise and bloody anoying.
Wrote about these before, but I got me a set of musicians moulded ear plugs
from a Hearing Aid Shop. They were $180 (tax deductable) and work real well for me.
They drop out -25db so Im not Roo-Race ringing after a ride!!!
