RE: Dainese D-Air Wearable air bag
um... pretty sure Ranger is incorrect. I read some article on it a while back, and I believe its a lot more complex than that. as far as i can recall, the "speed hump" is where its housed, and inside the speed hump is an Accelerometer.
There were countless tests done to determine the "usual forces" a rider encounters at MotoGP speeds... hard braking, sudden acceleration, lateral forces experienced in cornering and the sudden "weightless" feeling you get going from a hard right to a hard left with no straight section, and vice versa. after these were measured, they set the accelerometers to a determined level that would not be tripped under normal conditions, and voilla...
I can't imagine a regular joe being able to afford it, and it is probabl;y a one time use kinda thing too. if it delpoys you can't re-pack it like a parachute

Here's a link to an article
http://www.wbaltv.com/newsarchive/14328936/detail.html
We have a company here that is making jackets that don't just protect your neck and head, but have panels across front and back to protect ribs, liver and kidneys and spine from impact.
I'll try and find the link - it was on our local TV show '2 wheels' a couple of weeks ago.
I want one - they attach to a pull -pin type arrangement, and are reuseable.
