At least you don't need to look around much to find them.

I'm gonna assume all those teeth are coming out.
FWIW, my wife has a pair of Beats Fit Pro. Sound quality is meh but I've heard worse. They are inside your pinna so should fit fine in most helmets. They are theoretically sweat resistant but not waterproof. One fell out into the sink full of water months ago. Threw it in rice and it was fine. Last week she really put them to the test and one fell into the pool. Submerged under 8' of salted chlorinated water for a minute or two until I dove for it. Put in rice, charged and the damn thing still works. A+ for surviving either of those tests when not water rated.
EDIT:
FWIW, she runs in them almost daily and they have never fallen out on a run. The only two times one fell out, she was over water.

I have the Monster Achieve 100 Airlinks and for $40 the sound is really good. I run with them, wear them when working around the house (cutting grass, chainsaw, etc) and when riding the dirtbike and they have never fallen out. Call audio is excellent on both ends as well to my surprise.
My $30 over the neck wonders have worked well for several years - lasted for 5-6 hours and with decent memory foam tips have decent ambient noise suppression. Surprising how durable.
There are more out there now with the same design but much longer battery life which is useful. Partner wears hers for hours every day listening to audio books.
Just okay for music and controls are easy to use even with gloves.By moving the battery out the IEMs fit under a helmet much easier.
Sony has a set in Canada
They were bought mainly for their hearing aid features
https://www.seniorliving.org/hearing-aids/airpods/to reduce noise clutter in busy venues. Sound quality is very good and with memory foam tips the ambient suppression is not bad. Work in progress.
Easier to fall asleep with on and comfortable around the house.
Will see how they work out in the noise at the Bowls Club this Thursday.
Sophisticated bit of high tech including the case. The noise cancelling is superb ....not yet sure about motorcycle use tho.
There is a new gen just about to release but the current gen are around on deal. I paid $130 Australian new.
Not sure the latest is that much of an upgrade but can't afford them anyways.

Lately I picked up a current set of Airpod Pro 2 for $130 and they do fit under my C3 helmet tho the ambient noise suppression so far is not great.
