Guess I have never really understood the need for an air-bag on a motorcycle!!..I suppose it helps in a crash somehow otherwise I don't think Honda would have designed it for the GW....JMHO
If they recall your motorcycle you can press them for a free rental car / motorcycle and they (Honda) has to provide it up until it is replaced.Originally Posted by JMartin

At 380 lbs I have a built in air bag-LOL
I used to thing an airbag on a motorcycle was ridiculous. After I watched the video I changed my mind. Without the bad the rider goes right into the car, with the bag up and over. If those were my two choices I would prefer to go over rather than thru!

Maybe so, but does this type of accident really happen in the real world??..I doubt very often, if at all....JMHO
Uh, the number one multi vehicle "accident" scenario involving motorcycles is when the car turns left in front of the motorcycle and the bike catches the car right front, center or right rear panels.
So, to answer your question, yes.

Looks to me like both scenarios cause the rider to go head first into the van!
I truly hope none of us ever crash or get hit by a car believe me...but if these air-bags on motorcycles were all that life saving, why are they not required on heavy road bikes and why is Honda the only one that has them on 1 model????...Just curious
