Default Riding Gear with Armor??????

Hey whats up guys, I will be taking my MSF course july 1st through the 4th and i have decided to go with a 1995 GS 500 as my beginner bike. I noticed you guys said i should look for leathers with armor however i have been pressed to find such. I choose to go with SHOEI for my helmet and Joe Rocket Speedmaster boots with Perfarated leather pants but when it comes to the jacket i cant find a joe rocket one with armor. IM confused is the armor the plasitic i feel in the shoulders and elbows of the jacket????
