Dainese D-air Racing suit

The Dainese D-air Racing motorcycle suit, which features an airbag system, has gone on sale in the UK.

Designed to give extra protection to the shoulders, neck and upper chest, it has an internal sensor that detects when a slide or fall is happening. A signal is then sent to the airbag, which inflates within 30 milliseconds.



A unique aspect of the D-air is that, unlike the Spidi DPS system for example, everything is wireless and so there’s no physical connection to the motorcycle.



Alpinestars is known to be working on something similar, but for now it’s still in a development phase and not available commercially.



With track days in mind, the Dainese suit also includes software that records telemetry data. Back in the pits, this can be downloaded to a laptop for analysis of the rider’s performance. Compatibility with Google Earth even means that racing lines can be displayed over a map of the circuit.



As might be expected, such technology does not come cheap. UK prices start at £2,409 for the basic suit, rising to £3,240 for customised versions.
