    WTB: Back protector

    I'm looking to buy a back protector that I can wear(as oppose to put into a jacket). I'm 6' tall 160lbs so I think I would be looking at mediums in general. Looking for something appropriate for mostly street riding with 1 trackday a year.

    Would rather be able to try on before buying. Let me know what you have.

    Are these okay for trackdays? I know TTD requires "hard" back protectors but gave Bohn and Knox kind back protectors as exceptions.

    Re: WTB: Back protector

    You'd have to ask ttd to be 100% sure but the forcefield stuff is rated higher then bohn stuff. I don't even think the bohn stuff is ce certified? Ive tried knox & imo they are too bulky. The forcefield stuff is much more comfortable then the hard armor. Read up on some reviews & im sure itll impress u. Only reason I'm selling is because the size is too small for me.

    I'm out, the Forcefield size guide says I'm an XL, despite being 5'8" I have a long torso.

    No problem. Best thing to do is try it on. Like my Astar chest is s/m but seems to fit fine but my forcefield chest is a large and fits great also
