Wow that is a long time for pain. Hope you fully heal soon.

I know my brother laughed at me when I put the chest protector on long ago when I bought my 250R in 1988, but that winter
one night when I was riding behind him a branch came off a tree after he passed it and it hit me in the chest like a knight jousting
with me and hit me hard enough to pull my arms off the bars and move me back in the seat. Glad I had the chest protector on that night.

Right now though I think I am too thick of body to fit into any chest protector. I'll have to look and also get one for the kid.


Thanks for the update and the reminder!
