Discount leather jackets and motorcycle leather

asv3-airbag.jpgWell, here is another motorcycle airbag story…

Apparently, the folks at Yamaha have been working on a ’safer’ high-powered scooter.  

Dubbed the ASV-3 (Advanced Safety Vehicle)  it is apparently designed to make those highly dangerous scooter rides a little bit safer (for some certain parts of your anatomy anyway). 

One of its numerous safety features is an airbag that is concealed just under the front of the seat. 

In the event of a high speed crash, the bag deploys between your legs to, presumably, prevent you from flying forward, off the scooter, and onto the pavement or other hard obstacles. 

 At least your reproductive future is protected, huh?   Although, considering most automobile airbags deploy at over 150 MPH, I think I would still wear a good pair of leather motorcycle chaps and a ‘cup’, to protect me from the airbag :-)

    I bought my son a leather jacket from this site for his birthday and he’s gained a lot of self confidence from it. He really likes it and wears it more often for trips rather than his other jackets. It also suits him and matches everything he wears….

    I purchased a gift from this site for a rather nerdy friend of mine. Who knew it’d have such an effect on him to be motivated in becoming a lot more confident! Great site you have here!…
