Next is bike cabin I think. The cabin will make your bike a car.Originally posted by aargee View Post
It will protect you from bad/ good Weather. It will give you a reputation somewhat comparable to a car user. CBR might get it first, as it will enhance aerodynamics!
Ok, honda how about a Sidecar+Cabin two in one...
Maybe It's not that funny, but why is Honda taking everything from a Car and plonking it to a bike?---

@Samarth - Loved you post!!! Absolutely hilarious Lol
You're right in a way that, ABS, Seat belts, Air bags might become a standard for a motorcycle someday. Its probably because of the technology advancements. Just guessing.
You mean something like this?Next is bike cabin I think. The cabin will make your bike a car

Does it mean that providing safety measures in a bike makes it a CAR?
So what about C-ABS? wasn't it derived from cars?
Goldwing has airbags since a long time now. So? Improving on safety standards is applause-able especially when no one is forcing them to get into this arena. Specially when there is no direct competition from other bike manufacturers.
And don't know about others, but sometime i wish that i had an option to press a switch and voila, something pops up to save from from the no mercy heat, or rains or hailstorm etc etc
Reputation comparable to cars??? as long as i know, if someone owns such exotic bikes here in India atleast, he is reputed beyond what cars can manage.
Note:- Your post was sure hilariousComment

Airbag..
I guess,most of the motorcycling fatalities are a result of people falling from the bike
So,if I have to be safe in my Honda,I shall make sure I am going to ram into something and avoid falling right or left..Wish it were that easy..
If you ride like there's no tomorrow...worry not there won't be!Comment

OK, imagine someone crashing head on, what happens? he will go flying right into the other vehicle. If you have a airbag in between, the casualty can be reduced to great margin as it will absorb most of the force.Originally posted by shivank View PostAirbag..

Yes,to be on a safer side,you can have this safety feature on the bike.But on a BIKE it makes little sense to me,where you can fall and hurt yourself from each and every angle possible..If you ride like there's no tomorrow...worry not there won't be!Comment

Leave aside the crash, Brake hard and you will realize where your body is moving to. Mostly It's Front.Originally posted by Jayakrishna View PostHow can honda assume that the rider will fall only over the tank
Even in cars, mostly airbags are provided at front and not on sides and back. Why? can't we get hit from side or from back?Comment

agreed if you get hit by a bus skipping signal then no point of thisOriginally posted by shivank View Post
Because in cars when you are hit head on you hit the steering wheel and its impact is fatal but you have a bit of protection from side in form of doors which is not there in bikes our hands legs are exposed naked to any obstacle, i got your point but i am just pointing about use of only frontal bagsOriginally posted by sherry_unicornlover View Postsite:xbhp.com keyword -> Google this to dig up stuff in xbhp fasterComment
