Which clothing helps protect a motorcycle rider’s body against abrasion and impacts in a fall?

Correct answer

Motorcycle-specific abrasion-resistant jacket and trousers with protectors.

Motorcycle-specific jacket and trousers with abrasion-resistant materials and protectors over vulnerable areas. Suitable leather or technical textiles can be used; textile protective clothing is not all equivalent to ordinary street clothing. It should fit properly and be fastened correctly without hindering control operation. It reduces injury severity but does not guarantee freedom from injury.
