These look like they are much longer than the 6is I use now. Will these work while wearing a motorcycle helmet?

Depends on how far in ear canal you feel comfortable putting them. I suppose it also depends on type and fit of your helmet. One of my helmets (full face) is rather snug around ears. I can wear mine under my helmet. Trick is putting them in and then sliding helmet on without pulling them out. Need to leave some slack in cord, sometimes kinda tricky and time consuming. They headphone itself measures 1" long with no tip. I use a soft tip (same as shown in pic) which adds an additional 1/4" to the length. Next thing to consider is the fact that other drivers don't see us and are always trying to run us down. Not hearing them because of the noise reduction of the headphones only adds to their arsenal. Hope this helps.

I bought these for that specific purpose, and have not had zero problems. I had to make sure to use the right tip, but it came with an assortment. They really cut out the wind, but I can still hear my bike and traffic, etc., even with music playing.

I suppose it would depend on the thickness of your helmet - there is measurement markings on the strap goes to 8" around. HTH

Comfortable. Didn't use in a motorcycle helmet but I can' see a reason why this wouldn't be fine. I used mine doing construction work -all I could hear was music. The cord which connects the two buds wrapped over behind the ears and back around to the front of my neck. The fit was adjusted by tieing a poachers knot in the middle. If you are going to talk, you probably should wear a full helmet with sheild. Otherwise, should work great. I used to ride.

These ones will, no problem! If you look at the picture of them, note the little, curved "horns" on top. These are adjustable and fit into the grooves right above your ear canal. They are soft, but can be annoying if you have sensitive ears. I wear mine hiking, biking, power walking and they have never once fell out. They sound pretty damn good too!

They don't stay on very well. All I have to do is look down and they slide off my head. You probably want the Koss PortaPro (very comfortable, sounds better than the HD218, and they never fall off). IEMs are good also, since they'll stay in and won't interfere with a hat/helmet, but they do shut out outside noise so you might want to think twice before using them on the slopes. Hearing that scream of "Watch out, you idiot!" might actually save your life.

No I havent tried them on a motorcycle but I would think they would do well. The goggles arent padded but they are comfortable for use with a cutting torch.

I don't see why they couldn't be worn with a helmet since they are low profile. Just be careful when you remove your helmet. The very first time I wore my Earbags, the wind was blowing and one of them was blown right off my ear and was lost. I won't be purchasing them again because I thought it was a pretty high price for one wearing!

Sorry so late to reply, but I just now saw this. I have a pretty big head (hat size 7 3/4) and these fit fine. They go around the back of your neck, not over the crown of your head. It's possible your head might be too wide, ears too far apart (everyone's head is shaped differently), but they work fine and are very comfortable on my big head.

To be honest they should work. But ur using these for running don't get them. Because they didn't stay tight around my ears. I hardly use them. If the ear pieces weren't loose they would be better.

I don't know. I am a male, over 6' and have a fat face. ha I would guess the ends might protrude a little. I LOVE them. Great from driving, running, on my motorcycle.I am sorry I cannot be more precise.

I believe they will.I got them for a teenager who wears a helmet I can wear.My head is probably medium.

I think it'd depend on the helmet. If the helmet covers any part of the ear (or comes within about a half inch of the ear), it likely wouldn't work. The headphones are a bit bulky.

No... these headphones are only for pinheads. Just kidding, I wear a size xl motorcycle helmet and these are plenty big for me. I bought a second set for my son... he's 10 and these will fit his little head too. The only thing that I find too small about these is the earcups, they are on the small side... but they fit my son perfect and he says they are his favorite pair.

They run the same size as a normal helmet. I suggest going to a local motorcycle shop and trying on a few and see what size fits you best.

The cables and noise cancelling I believe.. Big Head? These are pretty fit so i would say they would be tight on a larger head. I wear a 7 5/8 fitted so an 8 would be tight but not uncomfortable. These are great on comfort!
