Airbag....on a bike?!

It's bit weird alright but, I suppose it might work once it doesn't bounce the rider miles into the air cartoon style Link stroked from Motorcycle Ireland: http://www.motorcycledaily.com/09september05_2006honda_goldwing_airbag.htm

This has to be a p*** take, in any kind of accident surely you're likely to come of the bike?

Have heard of a crowd that makes a jacket with an airbag. The jacket clips to the bike, if you get thrown from it, the jacket inflates. Think these are the guys:

Not sure what happens if you forget to unclip the ripcord & step off the bike

If they added some sort of side air bag it might make sence. With a goldwing as shown in the pic I would be more worried about it falling over and trapping a leg after the airbag "saves" you?
