Had a motorbike accident yesterday..........

[Biglockie]

Goin to look at some this weekend fella, looking at a KNOX, the factory is about 15miles from me.

KNOX can't be faulted, excellent stuff.

 

[Biglockie]

Good, hoping i wont be calling on its services when I'm riding but better safe than sorry

 

[Amchlolor]

Yup.
Apart from head injuries, the next biggest killer is spinal trauma.
Some of the back protectors you get as standard in leathers are a joke.
I use an RS-Taichi one I've had for years, but a few blokes I know like the KNOX one that has shoulder straps as well as the waste strap.
Given that 've broken ribs in the past, I wear a chest protector too.
When I raced, I used to wear a protec ******* protector as well!
Once you slam your ******** in a crash, you never want to do it again!
After one practice crash on the Saturday, I couldn't get my leathers over my swollen plums on the Sunday!

Cheery thread this, isn't it.
