Brilliant tech. Anything that saves the lives of motorcyclists
time to invest in one of these. I didn't know it was so self contained and easy to reload. Thought it was like a car airbag and then you have to buy a new jacket. but this is great.
Got a Helite Turtle vest. Thankfully I haven't had to use it, but wouldn't leave home without it now.
I have to say, after having two accidents in the space of 2 years, the second one resulting in 3 broken ribs, a punctured lung, a broken collar bone and a broken hand, I think I owe it to myself and my family to get one of these once I am fully recovered.
Been using this on the road with my Dainese jackets/suit with a hump and it works brilliantly. Its a great product. Just attach the lanyard to the frame under the seat of the bike, feed it up between the tank and the front of the seat and keep it as short as possible so that the distance you travel before the jacket fires is at a minimum.
I like this one. Looks like it protects the neck in addition to back and chest. Looks easy to recharge too.
I have to say, given how much I love motorcycling and so understand how much more dangerous simply commuting can be compared to a car, these should be made a legal requirement in the UK just as a safety helmet. Good product, I will grab one.
This has already saved so many lives! A revolutionary product!
Great product I’m definitely gonna buy one before the start of this riding season thank you for your innovation in motorcycle safety
Great that they include neck immobilization.
Last year my father had a serious motorcycle crash wearing a Helite GP Air. The vest didn't deploy because the mechanism that opens the cartridge malfunctioned. He suffered severe injury and survived because of a miracle. PLEASE testfire your Helite vest to check that it really works!!! My Turtle worked but my trust in Helite is gone forever and so is my fathers ability to ride.
The fact that you can use it again, is awesome.
I have both the Turtle Vest and the adventure jacket. I wear the turtle vest more because I can wear my regular riding jackets underneath depending on weather (hot, mild, cold) When it’s really cold (relatively speaking for Florida) I’ll wear the adventure jacket. Another good thing about the vest is it’s high-viz reflective properties.
Amazing thanks again 🎉🎉😊
I love bikes!!
How about a review of the Helite E-Turtle too?
Very cool!!
two-oh-one-eight has got to be the most obnoxious way to say 2018
It would be good to design a a hip and leg air bag which is triggered as the bike Jack knifes or falls to either side, and detects car speed for side impact.
are both as good armor or is turle is better portectiomon?
