Airbag peace of mind.

Had to choose between an under jacket or over jacket airbag. I was leaning to the under jacket variant but as soon as I tried on this airbag I knew it was the one. It fits perfectly and I don't even feel it's there. Adds wind protection too therefore adds warmth. I have a textile jacket and a leather jacket and fits perfectly on both. I went to the Glasgow store with both my riding jackets and tried different airbags. The staff were great and their advice was invaluable.

Glad I bought this

Hopefully, I'll never have to experience this going off, but initial impressions are that this is well made and offers lots of adjustments to get a good fit. I bought this off the back of Bennetts reviews as it offers a good deal of protection. It is a bit heavy, but you don't really notice when you're wearing it. Overall, I'm happy with this purchase.

Happy so Far

Having worn a back protector for many years and riding almost every day I finally went for an air jacket. I opted for the MotoAirBag V4 due to its CE approval and long-term European market leader.. although its fairly new to the UK they are very popular in Europe and I've seen them many time abroad... I tried on a demo in the shop and got the right fitting, it looks stylish, plenty of adjustable straps/zips.. it feels heavy but once on you don't notice the weight and its a lot more comfortable than the back-protectors... fitting the lead to the bike was easy although the rear coupling is a bit awkward as you have to reach behind and find the coupling, time will tell if this gets on my nerves...
Overall I'm happy, great looking vest, feels good, happy with both front and rear air bags (hopefully I will never use)... so far so good..

Was looking at an airbag vest for sometime, doing lots of research with all of them, the V4 stood out as it's EN approved unlike a lot of them, it has a genius tether system so will go off if your rear ended.
Luckily haven't had to use it, but looking at the videos it offers lots of protection, thanks to it 2 separate bladders.

Description
The MAB V4 is an airbag vest, equipped with two synchronised airbag devices with Fast Lock technology, to wear over your jacket. Made from high tenacity polyester, it is supplied with a ring to connect to the motorcycle seat. The airbag comes ready activated and is reusable.
The MAB V4 features 2 airbag systems. A rear airbag for full-width back, sacral and cervical protection, and a front airbag for chest, neck and abdomen protection. The Fast Lock technology manages accident recognition in a complete and reliable way, with an 80 millisecond inflation time for both airbag systems to inflate with 25 litres total capacity (15 litres in the rear airbag, and 10 litres in the front airbag).
Once the MAB V4 is activated, it can be recharged in a few minutes using the recharge kit.
Fast Lock is the evolution of the activation cable. Internally it has an analogic accelerometer which can detect accident situations like a car's safety belt. It recognizes any type of accident upward of 5km/h. Fast Lock reacts in less than 5 milliseconds and activates the airbag.
Fast Lock is connected to the synchronisation system, which allows the airbag to be activated closer to the impact situation. For example, in a frontal impact, the front airbag is activated early and the rear on is activated after a few thousandths of a second. For rear-end collisions, the rear airbag is deployed before the front one.
The MAB V4 is equipped with an anti-accidental activation system. Before activating the airbag system, it is necessary to extend the cable, overcome the elastic recoil force of Fast Lock and apply a load of 15kg.
