There is wind noise and conductive noise. Conductive noise is when you hear what's hitting the helmet's shell loudly. If you tap on the shell and it sounds very loud, you may be suffering from a conductive noise issue. Usually this is from the interior of the helmet contacting your hearing protection, ear plug/monitor.
I'm sorry, but I'm not buying your claim of foam ear plugs being challenging to insert. Many people don't insert earplugs correctly. W/o watching you do it, we have no idea where the issue is. What shape is your head and what helmet are you wearing?
You might find a contoured earplug more comfortable. Howard Leight Laser Lite plugs work for many people that have issues with more barrel shaped earplugs.
Find a safety supply store in your area or industrial supply store. They typically carry many different types of foam and silicone earplugs. Sold by the pair for cheap. buy several different kinds and try them until you find one that's easy for you to insert and works/fits well. Then buy a case of those and you're set for a good while.
