Joe Rocket back protector
i recently purchased a joe rocket sonic leather jacket. It came with a thin pad in the back of the jacket that is removable.
On the web site, they sell a back protector for $90. I suspect that it is nicer than the one that came with the jacket, but I'm now sure. Any insight would be great. Thanks Joe Rocket Product |

Re: Joe Rocket back protector
Just about anything will be better than those styrofoam boards that they stick in all of the jackets. New enough has a bit more info, better pictures and a slightly cheaper price:
Joe Rocket CE Approved Motorcycle Back Protector :: New Enough, LTD they also have cheaper options: Alpinestars RC Back Protector :: New Enough, LTD Hope that helps. |

Re: Joe Rocket back protector
It is harder plastic yes. I would suggest giving separate larger BPs a look. I personally like the Knox brand
