British gear and equipment manufacturer RST has been in the business for a few decades now, and covers the bases of nearly all disciplines of motorcycling. Not too long ago, the company teamed up with In&Motion to make use of the latter’s airbag technology. Now, RST continues to make use of that tech, and has released the new Axiom Plus touring jacket.
In a similar fashion as to how other RST airbag jackets work, the Axiom Plus integrates the airbag vest into its construction, and thus retains a clean and sleek aesthetic. The system can detect a fall thanks to sophisticated sensors, and as such, isn’t tethered to the motorcycle like other basic airbag suits. The jacket’s sensors and electronic components are integrated into the back protector, making the jacket easily serviceable.
