The best airbag to hit the market thus far really. Made with realistic use in mind. Ours are en route, due to land end of this week/start of next:
Just bought one from Motolegends .
Great kit . Very unobtrusive to wear

I forgot to update this thread.
I used the Plasma 5 in Spain and France last month and it was brilliant .
Temperatures ranged from 5 to 28 c and I didn’t get too hot.
Within minutes you forget you’re wearing the vest.
It’s a genius design too as it arms when you zip it up and disarms when you take it off .
You can also hold the button to disarm it if you want to keep it on at coffees stops etc, which I did as it’s so unobtrusive.
And you can probably get 10% off at Motolegends.
Motolegends promise to price beat by a full 10% if you can find an item cheaper .
Now annoyingly the usual 10% off using a code from here won’t discount the Plasma 5 for some reason .
BUT get this .
Sportsbikeshop price
Motolegends price
So, because of that single penny,if El Chapo de Capo honours his price beat terms, you can get a full 10% off by screenshotting the Sportsbikeshop and sending it to [email protected]

if you get the 10% it comes in at £630. Thats about EURO 20 cheaper than it would be from FC Moto delivered in NL
These look good , can you change the canister yourself ? Where and how much is a replacement? Are they use once or multiple times?
Yes very easy.
Single use. Think they’re about £100 to replace . Need to buy a spare .
You simply unzip the rear zip in the back protector to access the canister then unscrew it
Brilliant thank you
Should be good with my Marakesh , i will try one at the weekend Sportsbike shop have all sizes available
Thanks again
Thanks again
It’s fine with mine
If I hadn’t bought a Tech-Air 5 earlier in the year I’d definitely have one of these.
got an additional question on this airbag. I am really tempted to go for this and replace my tethered Turtle 2. Reason for this especially in summer I just cant get enough airflow over my Macna cooling vest with the tethered one and the tethered one with gas bottle is quite heavy.
Question is if this works with a Macna cooling vest and if you wear your cooling vest over or under this airbag vest?
thanks

anyone any experience with this airbag at all?
Used mine in Spain in October and been using it on local rides since .
Supposedly using it today if my ferry sails .
It’s a great bit of kit . Very comfy . Battery lasts at least two long days . Probably more but haven’t risked it .
