Honda might want to re-think the flesh colored airbag. Looks more like the rearend of a blowup doll.  It's not a photochop joke: Raptors and Rockets

Saw the demo this morning on Good Morning Whatever...
Made me smile when I walked past my no computer, carburated America. You are right about what that airbag looks like! I'd hate to think if you hit a big pothole, the bag goes off and you are riding blind for a few seconds. I'm sure they've worked out all the safety kinks...

I just heard that HD is following suit! The big difference is that theirs will have a tattoo that shows the HD logo and "Ride to Live, Live to Ride!" printed on one of the 'butt cheeks...'

Gives "Buttface" a whole new meaning.
A word to the wise is not necessary. It is the stupid ones who need the advice.

Umm, Dereck...I think you gave away too much information.

Seriuosly though, I think an air bag on a bike would do way much more harm than good.

That's some scarrey sh-t! Then you guy's are kind of scarrey anyway. He-l that's why we ride, to be scarrey, and maybe to split a lane every once in a while. PS I think I knew that blond, once, I was drunk, I don't remember!

This just in... "Ducati has announced its intention to follow suit with Honda in developing an airbag retention system for its line of motorcycles. The primary difference in design is that the Ducati model will be a brunette instead of a blonde, and will be more likened to large bosoms instead of a derriere in response to the preferences of the Italian riders surveyed."  In a related story... Honda announced that the design for its airbag system was directly influenced by its marketing department wanting to make more of a sales impact in the Greek marketplace. (Sorry, Bedouin. Couldn't resist...)

I gotta know, where did Derek get that picture? I love the "garter belt retainer straps"! Nice Touch.

I got the photoshop blowup doll off of my local VTX riders board. I'm sure the guy who posted it got it from somewhere else as he's not known for having that talent.
