[QUOTE="Amadeus, post: 580296, member: 41106"] Well, other than riding naked I would say you all appreciate the protection given by your CP.:) I guess my real thoughts lye in fact that I DO want some kind of upper body protection but that these CP dont seem like a very sturdy design. They seem to be designed more for mobility and less for protection. I have been riding street machines for over 13 years and I am a strong advocate for FULL protection(Never cheap either). It has literally saved my life in the past. So, when I jump on a dirt bike these days my upper body DOES feel naked and I do want something that will effectively protect me from the elements of disaster. My only question was to what degree does this piece of equipment protect? You guys have answered well! It wont protect you from a head on collision with a rock wall (likewise for street gear) but it will minimize the injuries sustained in many common spills(as does street gear). So as a response to everyones great replies: Im one to shop but never one buy cheap gear. If the GOOD stuff is expensive you'll be sure to hear me groan but I'll always buy it. So in this case I'll fork out some dough and give one a try........Until I come up with a better design of my own (maybe Ti plated football pads):) Thanks [/QUOTE]
