What do you guys think of this jacket?

[Pol Anorl]

Browsing the interwebs i found a bike jacket with air bags, seems kind of cool and the price isn't all that bad, anyone tried them?

You ride a Honda Bros 400 yet want to blow £350 on a jacket?

How come when I click the link in your post I get URL's from Affiliatefuture.com before it shows the jacket, yet when I copy & paste the URL into a blank address bar I don't ?

I have a Hit-Air vest, which I imported from the US for about £150 including duties and Parcel Farce's mugging surcharge. I went for the vest because it has the same airbag protection as the jacket, but it can be worn over anything - in summer, I wear it over a kevlar lined shirt.

It's easy enough to use, just clip and go. I haven't had the opportunity to try it out yet. Of course, it's a complete waste of money, right up until the second that I come off, at which point it'll be the best money I ever spent.

If you want it, go for it: people pay more than that for a helmet with worse protection than a £30 Box.

I wasn't saying i would buy it now but it looks tempting in the future, also being a bros 400 means nothing.. plenty of people die on mopeds every year

Oh man, wait until the anti-ABS & TC brigade (see ABS thread) get here. They will stamp their feet and spew expletives until you wish you hadn't considered protecting yourself!
