Are rider airbags the best crash protection?

- I'm testing a rider airbag vest in all off-road conditions to see if it will deploy without crashing, then push the limits further to find what point it will deploy and how much protection it will give me.

adam, at 48 you're still riding like someone who is 18 :) at 35 I have a lot friends ditching a lot of hobbies because they say theyre too old, but not me ... staying young at heart makes life worth living
Off road airbag technology is coming, and it will literally save lives.
What happens in a race when you have a simple tumble un-injured but now you have an inflated balloon around your body…..
If it deployed on low speed crashes in offroad you need a new vest every day you hitting the trails. I think good body armor wil do the rob. If your not a toby price dessert racer
I'd set that thing off ten times a day🤣. $1,000 and you have to send it in and pay $200 to recharge every thirty hours of riding😱. Fill it with gunpowder and there will be no pain.
I do wonder how much of a sweat pit they will be.
Thanks for the test! I own the vest for 2years and i was scared of accidental deploy on my F850 GS but now I see I will be just fine 👍😀
wheres the refill?
I watched the moment of impact frame by frame... I think it deployed a bit late, your helmet has already touched the ground and was deflected a bit sideways. The vest is supposed to also replace the neck brace.
How are you so cool?? Alpha male
Adam, I fully commend your commitment to that test. It’s not easy to intentionally take a fall. The video captured it perfectly. I could literally see the point of inflation when you were about 8-9 above the ground. And the audible “pop” was clear.
Adam, 48 years and the self preservation is high. LOL !
Thanks for the video Adam, I'm home recovering from 5 broken ribs on my Yamaha T7 and I was reading up on this airbag. The people in the store have told me that there is only circuit and street mode, and I have been a little undecided. Now after watching your fantastic video I am more sure to buy it. Thanks for your videos!!
Top video, I have a Helite E Vest that you wear over your jacket. I came off a few months back and it had deployed before I hit the tarmac. This design stabilises your kneck and goes down your back protecting the base of your spine. All I can say is that like you I am sold and now i will not ride anywhere without it.
What a great real world test!
Probably the most entertaining YT motorbike channel - thanks for your attitude, it´s so refreshing!
Hi Adam, hands down one of the best and funniest motorcycle gear product tests I’ve seen. Love your work as usual. I think it’s convinced me to buy one.
What a test! Not only of the technology. But also of self-preservation. Hats off to you, Günter/Nürnberg
Thanks for the no nonsense no sales fluff honest test. What a game changer. If you are young or old you should seriously try to budget this into your riding gear setup.
Great to see someone test it off-road. Looking forward to the off-road / Dakar version to hit the market later this year. That thing saved Chuckie in the 22 Dakar..
