Rib Protection
Hi Guy's
It’s been 4 weeks now since I crashed and smashed my ribs against a tree, yesterday I finally gave into the pain and my wife’s demands and went to the Dr's, cracked ribs, server bruising, cartilage damage and depressed lung & fluid retention in lungs. This is the 5th time I have done this over the last 6 years and let me tell you at 50 years of age it hurts harder and longer. I have tried three different armour types, Dainese, Troy lee body suits & Fox Roost 2, all these offer good front & rear protection but I always seem to get hit in the side were there is no protection . Has anyone got any ideas for me? I recently saw a rib protector used by Go-Kart riders, I was thinking of using one of these in conjunction with my Fox Roost. BTW- Love my 250 Gaser, however hate the power valve rattle!
