FAQs
What is D3O XTR Level 2 protection?
D3O XTR Level 2 refers to a standard of impact protection. Level 2 offers a higher level of protection than Level 1, meaning it can absorb and dissipate more energy during an impact. D3O is an intelligent material that is soft and flexible in its normal state but locks together and hardens instantly upon impact.
How do I know what size back protector I need?
A size guide is available to help you determine the correct size. It's important to match the protector size to your body dimensions and the corresponding pocket size in your Rukka garment for optimal fit and protection.
Can I wash the Rukka D3O XTR Level 2 Back Protector?
No, the back protector should not be machine washed. Cleaning should be done with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid solvents and harsh chemicals.
How often should I replace my back protector?
It is recommended to replace your back protector after any significant impact, or if you notice signs of wear, cracking, or degradation of the material. Regular inspection is advised.
Is this protector compatible with all motorcycle jackets?
This protector is designed for use in compatible Rukka jackets or other motorcycle apparel featuring a correctly sized and shaped protector pocket. Always check your garment's specifications for compatibility.
What is the main benefit of the D3O material?
The main benefit is its unique ability to be soft and flexible for comfort during normal use, yet instantly harden upon impact to provide superior shock absorption and protection.
Troubleshooting
Protector feels stiff or uncomfortable
Ensure the protector is the correct size and is correctly inserted into the garment's dedicated pocket. Allow a short period of wear for the material to adapt to your body temperature and shape.
Protector is loose or shifts during riding
Verify that the protector is fully seated in the garment's pocket and that the pocket itself is designed to hold it securely. Check the size guide to ensure you have the correct size protector for your jacket.
Material appears to be degrading or cracking
