A bit too spendy for me, but I value good riding gear. I wear an aerostich and it has saved me once. I would consider a helite vest maybe.

good idea but, every 25h you have to recharge it, or it won´t deploy...

also, i did not see anywhere, what happend with it, once deployed (reusable??)

Once deployed the unit must be returned to Alpinestars for refurbishment.

Same with the BMW version of the same airbag system.
