Introduction
Motorcyclists’ protective jackets, trousers, one-piece suits, two-piece suits, impact protector ensemble
garments and other protective garments (hereinafter: “garments”) are intended to give some amount of
protection to riders without significantly reducing the ability of the rider to control the motorcycle. In
addition, designed to provide adequate protection against the risks against which they are intended to
protect, such as a fall from a motorcycle or another accident. Additional, particular, hazards
encountered during a motorcycle accident may include: impact with and abrasion from the riding
surface, impacts with the rider’s motorcycle, conflicting vehicles, and other objects. Motorcyclists’
protective garments are not intended to and cannot prevent traumas caused by high-energy impacts,
traumas caused by severe forces of bending, twisting, torsion, flexion, or crushing as the result of
striking an object, traumas caused by extreme abrasion, traumas caused by extreme movements, or
traumas caused by massive penetrations. No protective garments can offer complete protection against
all injuries. The principle of this standard is to define the basic performance requirements considered
essential for motorcyclists’ protective garments, in order for them to offer useful, classes of protection
to riders according to the risks they may encounter, in the situations described above, during various
riding activities and in various riding environments. This standard does not cover risks caused by
extreme weather conditions. Where additional protective features are claimed (e.g. high visibility), the
assessment of said protective features will be done with reference to the appropriate additional
standards.
Motorcycling encompasses a diverse range of riders participating in a diverse range of activities. While
all motorcyclists face similar fundamental risks when involved in an accident or a fall from a
motorcycle, the type and degree of risk or hazard that a motorcyclist will encounter and the class of
protection that they will need is closely linked to the riding activity, the riding environment, and the
nature of the accident. In addition, because each motorcyclist participates in their chosen riding activity
in different ways, within specific riding activities motorcyclists are also exposed to varying levels of risk
and, therefore, require varying classes of protection. The elements that are a part of the fundamental
design and functionality of a particular type of motorcyclists’ protective garment, while appropriate and
minimally constraining or limiting when used in a specific environment for a specific riding activity,
may, on the other hand, present unacceptable constraints and liabilities in other riding environments
and for other riding activities, such as increased penalties of weight, decreased range of motion and/or
heat stress, and therefore, may not be acceptable for use by all riders during all motorcycle activities.
This series of standards has been developed to encompass a large range of motorcycle disciplines and
motorcyclists’ activities, each with their own particular risks and appropriate classes of protection, to
ensure that the best possible protection of an appropriate type is available for riders during their riding
activities.
This standard is a part of a series of standards including also EN 17092-2, EN 17092-4, EN 17092-5, and
EN 17092-6, which together describe the requirements for motorcyclists’ garments, according to the
various classes of protection offered and EN 17092-1, which specifies the test methods to assess the
conformity of said garments to the requirements of the applicable product standard of the EN 17092
series.
