M/C Air Bag
I see where the 08 Goldwing has an air bag. Watched a video, it seems like a pretty neat idea, would obviously help in front end collisions but not so much on any others. How many think an airbag is a good idea on scoot? (not counting an ex wife)

RE: M/C Air Bag
Honestly, I'm intriqued by the notion. Clearly, it will be effective primarily in head on collisions, but I've known plenty of folks who've collided that way. Lost my uncle in '70 just that way. It's simply safety technology, not unlike ABS. . . .

I agree with you Chil, it is an intriquing idea. The bag is designed with tethers that anchor to the front of the seat so it does not fly over the handle bars, but rather sits securely on top of the handle bars. Looks likes like it would stop you from eating your windshield.
