Airbag for bikers
The MOTOAIRBAG® is a waistcoat with an airbag system on the inside that is activated in the event of a
fall and protects the biker‘s spine. The waistcoat is worn over the jacket like a normal item of clothing. The
airbag is activated by a cable with a special hook that is attached to the motorbike (the cable is supplied
with the airbag).
Directly after the rider is thrown from the bike in the event of a collision, the cable automatically activates
the airbag. The rider is not held back on the bike.
And what if the rider gets off the motorbike without releasing the cable?
In this case, the MOTOAIRBAG® is not activated immediately, and the elastic cable reminds the rider that
there is still one thing to do. Next time, the rider will most probably remember to release the cable - just as
you would with the seat belts in a car. It is rechargeable. Once the MOTOAIRBAG® has been activated, it
is easy to recharge. A separate kit is required for charging. If necessary, the entire airbag system can
be removed from the surrounding clothing, e.g. to
check it or replace it, or maybe just to wash the gilet.
Product certificate
The MOTOAIRBAG® is certified to standard EN 1
621 - 2 2003 „Motorcyclists‘ protective clothing
against mechanical impact - Part 2: Motorcycle back
protectors“, and its transmitted force is 0.9 kN - a
much better level than that required by the standard.
Compared with other forms of protection, the
MOTOAIRBAG® offers between 10 and 12 times
more protection in the event of a collision, and the
protected zone is also much bigger: it reaches from
the neck to the coccyx.
There are loops and buckles on the inside that should
be closed. They are connected directly to the airbag
so that it is always in the correct position. Even when
the airbag has been activated, the rider can still move
freely, e.g. to walk away from the site of the accident
if necessary. There are adjustable loops on the side so
that the airbag can be worn over any jacket, whether
summer or winter. Material: 1 00% Polyamide.

of error when charging the safety device.
