I just use regular headphones. I never noticed the wind overpowering the music.

BTW - I might add...I do not have any sort of music player that I listen to...I just sign random songs I have in my head.

I don't do it when I am out in the "twisties" (I call them "twisties" because I am still a beginner ) but when I am cruising to work or running an errand I tend to sing...a lot...

Anyone else?
Only in the straights.

I laugh a lot. Like, last summer, I was riding at around 150mph over this long straight, but bumpy road. Not little bumps, but like little swells. I was laughing because I felt my front end getting light over each crest and I was chuckling because I realized how close I was to probably killing myself, but I couldn't stop. It was too much fun.
