Do you guys use them? I try to move my body on the tank when gasing out of turns to prevent the front end from lifting up
i want something comfy maybe a nice pillow

+1 for the helimot chest protector D. My chest now spends a lot more time on the tank and the bruised sternum is a thing of the past. It may also afford some level of protection in the event my chest leaves the tank and makes contact with another part of my bike, somebody else's bike or some part of the track in an unintentional way. Only thing it lacks is straps to secure it to their equally useful back protector but if your leathers are snug it should stay in place ok.

I tried using chest protector for the first time this last weekend.
Now i can actually nap on the tank on the straights and even in some corners, its awesome... :laughing

I have the impact armor one and like it quite a bit. I don't even notice it's there after it warms up (very quickly) with sun or my body temp.
