BMW Back Protector w, Kidney protection and a degree of Collarbone protection.
I crashed into a ditch going probably 70 mph and did not hurt my back, kidneys or Collar bones.
I did suffer other serious injuries , mainly 4 broken Ribs and a punctured Lung plus sprained Ankles and a lot of soft tissue damage but none in the back or Kidney or Collar bone area.
Price 3 years ago $245. Available from BMW shops.
I also have a Dainese Wave V neck Safety jacket that includes a Back Protector , Neck, Chest, Shoulder, Triceps, Elbows, and Fore Arm Armor.
This all works together as on unit to be worn under hopefully a riding Jacket.
Price $429 a year ago. Available from the Dainese Stores in San Fran and Costa Mesa, Cali. Dolph
Saw one of those BMW ones on EBay and put a bid in on it. Great reviews from what I read...
Also bidding on a Bohn Pro Racer Back Protector...

Make sure that you buy one that is CE level 2. Thats the most important thing. There's two levels, and level 2 is the best.

Ended up with one of these...

+1 to the Joe Rocket i have it, it is barely noticeable when wearing it. I have no problem wearing it every time i swing a leg over my bike.
