This is apparently the latest thing in riding jackets. It will add a new dimension to ATGATT. :shocked:

This??????????????????????????????????????? This what????????????????????????????? :hun: :hun:

I'm going to guess you planned to link to a video about the air bag style of safety jacket!!!!

The link worked for me. I'd consider it as a distracting novelty item.

That's kind of cool! :thumbup:

As long as you don't get hit by lightning! :yikes:

I had them surgically implanted in my back so it would work when I wear my flip-flops, short pants and no shirt. The only problem is I don't like where the battery goes...

I see the jacket lights as mostly useless on a sport bike. Yes, you can see the arrows in this video but that is because the rider is sitting up. Let's see another while he is in the tucked position. I don't think the arrows will be seen, especially from a lower angle, as you would have in a compact car. Just my 2 cents...

I'm sure it might wok for me too

but there is no link in the original post that I can see. It must be like the emperors new clothes.:roflblack:

2Paw, Caveman, if you click on the icon, it takes you to a Facebook page.

 

[2Paw]

What Icon

I see no ICON and no indications using the curser of anything to click on. When I said this is all I see that is exactly what I meant.

Yep, that was it. The emperor's new outfit, with flip-flops, is the new style for Spyder riding.

No seriously, there was a picture there when I posted it. For those geek types who want an explanation... The video is in Adobe Flash format, which is not supported by the forum software, so I posted a picture with a link to the video. But I uploaded the picture as a remote "attachment" rather than uploading it directly to the page from a permanent link. Then after that I deleted the attachment and the picture was still there, so I posted it. However, the picture was only still there in my browser cache. If a leave the attachment there, you can now see the picture with the embedded link (I hope). Sorry about that.

Thank you for posting the information.

The link goes to Facebook for me and then the video plays.

Interesting concept if you are in the proper riding position for people to view. A strong lean will make the arrows go up or down. :roflblack::roflblack:

Joking aside, I would not like to use a system like that if I had to plug in to the bike. That is why I do not wear heated gear.

I am guessing a novelty at first, but will have to see if it becomes a standard item. It does give everyone another choice for safety gear. opcorn:
