Are Motorbike Back Protectors Worth It?

The question is, are motorbike back protectors worth their cost? A new study in Italy looked at the effectiveness of motorcycle back protectors. The study participants were 2319 riders and passengers who were involved in crashes. The participants were recruited from the interventions register of the traffic police. The results show that back armors or protectors reduce injuries in approximately 30% of cases. However, a study by De Rome et al. did not find significant data to support the benefits of back protectors. Even the racers acknowledge that someone having an armor at back with a chest guard has undoubtedly has higher protection than one without these, even on the toughest trails.

What Does a Motorcycle Back Protector Do?

A back protector is designed to protect the area of the body between the motorcycle’s collar and the bottom of the pants. The spine and the central nervous system are vulnerable to serious injuries in a crash. The level of protection a back protector provides depends on several factors. The MAIDS Report (2004), the most comprehensive study of PTW accidents in Europe, says that a back protector can reduce the risk of serious injury by 30%.

The safety benefits of back protectors were first recognized in the 1984 World Championships in Kyalami, South Africa. Freddie Spencer was injured during practice when the rear carbon wheel of his Honda motorcycle collapsed and he fell to the ground. This accident was the first time that back protectors had been used to prevent spinal injuries. It was only in the late 1980’s that motorcycle back protectors were made more widely available and widespread.

The CE standard for back protectors break down into two levels of protection. The Level 1 back protector must withstand a force of 18kN, while Level 2 motorcycle back protectors must withstand a force of up to 9kN. The medical community reckons that any impact over four kN is likely to cause serious injury. As of the time of this writing, Level 3 motorcycle back protectors are still a way off, but they’re on the way.

Buying the Best Motorcycle Back Protector – Key Features

Buying a back protector is an essential investment as a rider. They come in various styles and sizes and can prevent fatigue in long journeys. A good one should be CE-certified, flexible and breathable. A CE-certified product means that it meets all the requirements for safety and quality. If you don’t like to sweat, you can get one that has a built-in elbow protector. There are several things to look for when buying a back protector for your bike.

The most effective protector use to be flexible and rigid. It should also be comfortable to wear and stretch and flex according to the rider’s needs for long hours riding. Moreover, the material should be lightweight, breathable and have no fasteners for the user’s comfort. It should have features that help protect your shoulders, in addition to protecting the back.

A back protector should be adjustable. Some models have removable straps that allow you to customize the fit. Some back protectors are made of bio-foam and quilted chassis to offer comfort and air flow. The protection plate should fit your back snugly, so it will protect your spine and hips in case of an accident.

You should consider the price of the product. A cheap back protector will not protect your back well. Even if it costs slightly more, go for it and do not compromise with safety. It should fit inside the bike jacket and suit.

The material should be high-quality, durable and easy to clean. A back protector should be able to prevent leakage and prevent chafing in the back. You should get protection from any side of the motorcycle and get your back cool in hot weather, for instance, get a breathable one particularly for summertime riding.

Right Sized Motorcycle Back Protector

The first step in ordering a back protector is to determine the correct size. Measure from the nape of your neck to about seven centimeters above the saddle. This measurement will ensure that the motorcycle back protector will fit and not interfere with the saddle. Likewise, you need to choose a model that has both the kidney and bladder protectors. If you aren’t sure how to do this, try to measure yourself while standing up.

This protectant will rest against your back at all times. The strapping mechanism will allow you to adjust the fit. If you don’t have a proper fit, the protector may be too bulky. If you have a rounded back, consider a strap-on model. These are easier to install than molded-in ones, and are the best option for many riders.

What is CE Certification for Back Protectors?

A CE-marked back armor is one that meets European safety and quality standards. To obtain this certification, the manufacturer or importer must check the directives for the product in question. The final step in the process is to obtain the CE mark on the protector. The final step is to make sure that the product is compliant and carries the relevant documentation. This certification is required for protectors that are used in the EU and other countries. However, it is not mandatory for products that are not manufactured within the EU.

CE Level 1 vs CE Level 2

The first question you must ask yourself is what is the difference between CE Level 1 and 2. Both levels are equivalent to protection against impact. A CE-accredited safety product has been tested to meet specific standards for impact resistance. The difference between CE Level 1 and a CE-accredited safety product is in the level of protection they offer. As a rule, the higher the number of zones is, the higher the level of protection.

Which back armor do you need on a race track?

If you plan on racing on a motorcycle, you should be aware of the different types of back armor. A good one is removable. A light armor tee is ideal for light riding. It is made with minimal foam padding. A heavy-duty version is a good choice for downhill and enduro rides. It offers enhanced protection and is bulky enough to not interfere with your riding.

Concluding Remarks

A back protector for your motorcycle is essential to keep you safe while riding. It is an accessory that you must have for your bike. These accessories are designed to prevent you from suffering injuries due to a crash. A back protector is an essential safety equipment for you to have while you ride. It will protect you from the impact of falling objects as well as from the heat generated during a long ride.
