Are hearing aids compatible with motorcycle helmets and wind noise? Specifically non-faired and adventure bikes and peaked helmets.

My ITC hearing aids aren't, but my over the ear hearing aids were terrible with wind.

My aids have three program sets. Normal, the most enhanced. Crowds, for background chatter, and car for road noise.

They all work pretty good. My doctors say my hearing loss is a tough one. At about 1000 cycles the test is still normal, then dropd off like on a cliff. Normal hearing at about 1000 cycles followed very close by my worst cycle hearing ina very narrow band. The worst level is at 80db. Then a gradual recovery but the highs only get halfway back to normal
This sketch sort of shows it
