Turn a basic riding jacket into a properly protected one. This 5-piece CE Level 2 motorcycle armor set replaces thin stock foam with certified back, shoulder and elbow protectors. The flexible PU foam inserts slide into standard jacket armor pockets. Choose high-visibility yellow ($39.99, our best-value full Level 2 set) or red ($65.00).
What's in the box
- 1 center-back protector (CE Level 2, EN 1621-2)
- 2 shoulder armor pads (CE Level 2, EN 1621-1)
- 2 elbow armor pads (CE Level 2, EN 1621-1)
Why CE Level 2 matters
CE-rated motorcycle armor is impact-tested to a European standard: EN 1621-1 for limb protectors and EN 1621-2 for back protectors. Level 2 armor lets less force through to the body than Level 1, so it is the higher protection rating. Every piece in this set is Level 2, so your back, shoulders and elbows are covered to the same standard.

How to check the fit before you order
- Open your jacket's armor pockets at the back, shoulders and elbows (usually Velcro or zip openings on the inside).
- Remove the existing pads or foam and measure them, or measure the pockets themselves.
- Compare those numbers with the dimensions above. A pad a little smaller than the pocket is fine; a much larger one will bunch up.
How to install
- Take out the old foam or armor from each pocket.
- Slide in the new pad with the curved side following the shape of your shoulder, elbow or back.
- Close the pocket and put the jacket on to check each pad sits over the joint, not beside it.
Common questions
Will these armor pads fit my riding jacket? They fit most motorcycle jackets with removable armor pockets. Pocket shapes vary by brand, so compare the sizes above with your jacket's pockets or your current pads before ordering.
Is every piece CE Level 2? Yes. The back protector, shoulder pads and elbow pads are all CE Level 2.
Can I buy just one pad? Yes. See our back armor pads, shoulder armor pads and elbow armor pads, or compare all armor pad sets.
How do I clean them? Remove the pads from the jacket and wipe them with a damp cloth.
