Really good back protector. Very flexible and comfortable, I barely know it is there. Very light weight, and breaths well. Highly recommend it, definite upgrade from the old RC back protector.
Rides: 2009 Ducati Monster 1100
Yes, I recommend this product.

Knox Advance X CE Back Protector CE approved armor incorporates trauma lite honeycomb protection Comfortable energy absorbing armor retro fits many products The Knox TP2 is a standard shape that fits any mens REV'IT or Teknic jacket and may fit other brands as well The Knox TP2 will fit in Women's REV'IT Turbine and Women's REV'IT Ignition Jackets Measures approximately 15 in length, 11 at its widest part, and 1 in thickness.
 

Correct installation?

When installed inside the jacket pouch, which side of the back protector is supposed to face/ touch your back- ie the bumpy side or the flat side? Or, does it not really matter?
Yes it matters. One side will flex, the other will not, and you will feel like you have a board stuck down your back. The hard plastic should be on the outside, and the soft foam on the inside touching your back.

Does this armor fit the verona air?, if yes. what size do i need on a medium jacket?

Yes this fits the Verona Air. I have a large size Verona and went with the Large protector. It fits perfectly. If you wear a medium, I would go with the medium protector.

From what I understand, if your wear medium or smaller ( euro size 52 or less), go with the medium.
If you wear a large or bigger ( euro 54 or more), go with the large.
