Ducati D-Air - Airbag Jackets For Riders
Ducati Motorcycles in collaboration with Dainese have therefore decided to incorporate an airbag in the jacket of the rider. Ducati has started efforts for bringing this safety gadget to bikers via their D-Air that comes as part of the package when you purchase $19,995 Multistrada S Touring Bike. As opposed to the traditional airbag jackets that rely on a ripcord or lanyard to deploy the system. This airbag system was fully deployed 30 milliseconds before the rider made impact with the ground. The 5 cm thick airbag is deployed, protecting the rider’s back, chest and neck. The airbag, as per Ducati, is capable of reducing the chest trauma by 92% and back trauma by 82%.
