I wear an A-Stars Bionic Vest, it's a combination back and chest protector that's built into a mesh vest that zips on. I love it, and it works great. Sportbike Track Time and NESBA both talked about making chest protectors mandatory for Int and Adv, and I think STT did it. I did a NESBA day earlier this year and they recommended back and chest protectors, I did an STT day about a year and a half ago and they had a fatality about a week before that would have been prevented with a chest protector. You can pick them up for about $150 anywhere. I seem to remember Azoom having the women's specific Alpinestars Bionic gear too.
NtS, um, yeah, just because I can be injured in the neck doesn't mean I shouldn't protect my back too.
