http://www.motomail.co.nz have a good selection of back protectors, get them to send you a free catalogue. The main thing to look for is comfort, there's no point buying one if you aren't going to wear it. You can also get armour jackets that have back, chest, shoulder and elbow protection, that go on under your regular jacket. There are longer back protectors meant for one piece suits and racing, down to shorter lower back protectors, as well as armour inserts for jackets (that have pockets built in for them).

Get a good back protector that goes all the way down and provides tailbone protection for those big falls. The "armour" in most 1 pc suits is really only just padding whereas a back protector takes the impact away from the spine and spreads it across your back.

If the RG150 is a two stroke, then there's nothing in the head to be rebuilt.
Clean the carbon out (pot scouring pad) and its done.
