Back protector
Anyone have a back protector reccomendation, hopefully one that isn't too thick. I'm really looking for opinions and experiences. I'm starting to shop for a new one, my last one was crap and all the non hard parts fell appart after 2 years

I've got a Dianese, and aside from not having shoulder straps, I like it. The straps are not an issue when the leathers are on over it.

Without question.
I use the contour. They are pricey but the best usually is. http://stores.knoxarmor.com/-strse-B...k?sfs=5b516a78

The TPro Forcefield, period. It's one of the thinnest, most flexible, most ventilated you can get.

Bohn back protectors are the only ones I've seen that give kidney protection as well. If I didn't already have 3 that came with various things I've bought I'd rock one.
