ABSTRACT:
A system for preventing injury to a motorcyclist in the event of a crash employs a rigid framework surrounding the upper body of the cyclist and inflatable air bags which both surround the cyclist with the ballooning air cushion and also serve to draw the cyclist's legs upwardly to prevent injury during the crash. A rigid body shell may be employed to encase the torso of the cyclist, or a space frame formed of a plurality of rigid elements may be utilized to protect the cyclist in the crash. A specialized seat can be employed which serves to eject the cyclist from the cycle when a crash is either imminent or is actually occurring.
