Default Motorcycle Airbag Vest

So i was talking to a safety officer the other day , and he said that a company is coming out w/ a motorcycle airbag vest. it has 2 CO2 cartridges on it and a safety chord going from u to the bike, when u get in a crash and u fall away from the bike it inflates 6 inches from your chost and inflates around ur neck. He was saying that the marine corp alright put money into this and r going to maek it manditory for marine corp riders to wear it if they want to ride on base (we already have to wear a gay ass orange construction worker vest as it is).


Now the only thin gi see going wrong w/ this, which the guy told me is, it accidently going off at gas stations or when ur done riding, cuz u forgot to unhook the chord and u step off, and puff u look like the marshmallow man.

i don't tihnk i'll keep my bike on base anymore if they make us wear these. i'm good w/ a jacket, helmet, gloves, jeans, and boots.

i swear I've seen a ad for these on speed a while ago.


not sure I'd wear one but i do think if there was a way to add something into a normal jacket collar that blew up and held your head up to maybe save your breaking your neck.
