Default Video: Dainese airbag motorcycle suit for 2010

Click for Video of Airbag Suit in action...





Dainese is set to release its new air-bag-equipped suits by 2010 - a full 10 years after development of the system began.

Dainese's D-Tec system is the first airbag from a major protective bike clothing manufacturer, although small companies have released jackets with cruder activation systems.
