Hello, I got a few Questions: 1. Can this be used on the streets or is the airbag system not intended for the street? 2. Can the minimum speed to activate the airbag be changed? 3. Is the airbag also protecting the back like a gimoto airbag system? 4. why is the suit made out of cow leather? I thought that race suits have all kangaroo leather?! 5. is there a alternative airbag suit in the same price range that is made of kangaroo leather?
I will try to hit these questions one at a time. I would recommend if you have any further questions, feel free to follow up with our Customer Service Gear Geeks so they can give you all the information that you need. 1) The D-Air Race system is designed for the track only, whereas the D-Air Street version has the added protection of impacts with other vehicles/protection at a stop. 2) No you cannot change the minimum speed to our knowledge, but that would likely be a better question to Dainese's tech department. However to our knowledge, no you cannot. 3) The Airbag system is housed in the back, but the primary impact focus is at the collarbones not the back. The rider would still need to wear a back protector as most track riders do. 4) Most race suits are made out of cowhide due to the cost of Kangaroo which is usually reserved for the top tier custom suits or pro racer models. 95% of race suits on the market (approximately) are made of cowhide, and only 5% are made out of kangaroo. 5) From Dainese, there is no like-priced Kangaroo suit w/ a D-Air Race system built in. They do offer the Mugello R D-Air suit but at that price point, it is a hefty investment to say the least. Hope that answers your questions. - Pat
Of course you can, but it's not exactly made for that and would likely be uncomfortable if not fully tucked. Dainese told me the Smart Jacket is their recommendation for D-air street use.
what happens if i use it on the streets and im not going that fast but low side or high side? will it still go off at lower speed on the streets? I enjoy life
thats because this system have a lower coverage then the alpine unit this unit only cover shoulder and clavicle while the chest side rib is wide open it should flow almost like an normal non airbag suit while the alpinestar unit is more like a vest of airbag and being air bag mean it has to keep air therefore it will also prevent air from passing but if you ask me i like the dainese strategy of coverage more ive crash multiple time on track even broke my collarbone wish i had this suit might have prevented it but except for that i have never really gotten any other injuries you are really only gaining back and side rib and chest protection compare to dainese but the muggello r suit would also add side rib coverage you can add ce2 chest and back protector that flows very well and combine with a the d air airbag it think in terms of real life safty aspect its pretty much the same as the alpine tech air race but with the added benefit of not being so bulky and having excellent airflow the difference might not be as great in more colder climate but in hotter and humid climate like Thailand or south east asia your really feel the difference between the 2 and comfort is also part of safety if your not comfortable in your gear its easier for you to lose concentration and crash dainese have always been very comfortable brand for me there d1 boots are far more comfortable then alpine supertech r boots with comparable safety
@@patthonsirilim5739 love the comments... I am so torn between the alpinestar v2 tech air and the d air suit... I've always had dainese and they are so comfortable.. never worn alpinestar.. is it right the d air only aimed once your over 30mph??
Is there any measurements in the size chart that are more important than others? My inseam puts me in a 52, but my waist and chest put me in a 50. Any suggestions?
The chest is typically the most important, we find the fit through the torso is the most critical in a suit. Additionally, since you wear long gloves and tall boots in a race suit, it's actually not that bad if the wrist and ankle are just a tad short, this is very common for taller rides, but not a safety concern since your other gear makes up for that lack of length. -Zack
how chubby are you? I thought I needed a short suit so I bought the Laguan in size 25, but when i got it I realized that it's really meant for chubbier people than me, the gut area was huge. I went back to a size 50, and while it's snug, at least it's not flabby. For reference I'm 5'-8 and 175lbs...
I wouldn't. $2500 for CE level 1 protection and a subpar airbag. Spend the money on an alpinestars suit that is CE level 2 standard and throw their much better airbag system into it. Same price give or take $100 and way better protection.
Does this require a back protector? I can't tell from the Dianese website. It shows coverage for shoulder/neck/clavicle, but no mention of back or chest.
@@ajotcole "I'm waiting for mine to come in. the back protector that comes with it, how do you mount the strap on yourself? around the waist? I've seen pics of it and was wondering
@@spencerblankenship6204 yeah you strap it around your waist like the normale ones. The strap is just a lot slimmer, but it is easy to get the hang of it.
I hope you guys don’t crash in it I had a small low side max 70kmh and the stitching on my right arm blew out and with multiple holes around the suit very disappointed.
Pricing from Dainese varies on the inspection/replacement but yes it would need to be returned back to them. They also inspect the airbag to make sure that after it saved you once - it is capable of doing it again.
what , i just bought one , i got size 50 and i am 5'8 156 pounds . by no means a guy his size and weight fit in a 48 size . also ppl should realize this is a heavy chunky suit .
I’m 5’6, 155lbs and the 48 fits perfect after break in. When it was brand new, I thought I got the wrong size because my back and chest protector barely fit. After one track day, it’s the perfect fit.
@@geese7484 tnx for your reply , when i wrote this , i had the suit but also was healing from some broken bones . Last week i was ready to go and started doubting , went back to the shop and traded it to size 48 ( tryin the suits on 6 weeks ago with broken hand and wrist was a bad idea )
We are not aware of any ordinances or las prohibiting race suit use on the street, but you can always ask your local law enforcement or lawyer to be positive. -Zack
I am 5'6" (almost 5'7"), 130lbs, and size 44 euro fits me perfect, quite snug but not overly so. Dainese is great about returns if you haven't used the suit. It sounds like you'd want to try a 46 or even 44.
Would there be any jacket you would recommend for the street? I got a S1000rr and very new to the airbag system stuff but I’m very interested in getting something to keep me safer :)
There are a lot of airbag options for the street currently on the market and it would have a lot to do with your specific needs and riding style. I would recommend reaching out to our customer service Gear Geeks to talk the in's and out's for what will work for you. You can reach them at cs@revzilla.com or 877.792.9455. Ride safe! - Pat
Yes, BUT...this race version will only activate above 50 km/h (31 mph). Also, it only activates for highside crashes and lowsides with tumbling. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-misano-2-d-air-perforated-race-suit
This suit is terrible I had a 70kmh low side the stitching blew out along with multiple holes. Not sure why anyone would spend the money on a one crash suit.
Homie was trying so hard not to laugh the entire time 😂😂😂😂
great suit tho,but the boots he's wearing is a Torque D1 IN,which is design to wear it inside the suit.
Anthony not doing the RevZilla videos, just doesn't hit the same!
I love mine, but you have to be a rocket scientist to be able to understand and use the 2D data logging

@@RevZilla Thanks for the response!
Great questions.. I was wondering the same.. so alpinestar gp pro v2 it is then...
@@RevZilla can we use it on the street? Even if the airbag is design for track?
Could you use this for the street? Or are you better off with tech air ..? Anyone

Niel Patrick Harris here should have said "suit up"!
a guy told me that the Alpinestars airbag suit doesnt let in enough air to cool your body down. Anybody knows that this has the same problem?
All airbag suits will block more air than non-airbag suits, but this still flows a lot of air. -DrewZilla

waiting on short and tall sizes so I can upgrade to a d air suit..

I own the Misano 2, and I comes with its own back protector when you order the suit.

So once the airbag deployed, you gotta send it to dainese to repair it for 300+ dollars?
Pricing from Dainese varies on the inspection/replacement but yes it would need to be returned back to them. They also inspect the airbag to make sure that after it saved you once - it is capable of doing it again.
Is the size 48 correct on the person wearing it in the video?
Yes.
why not just do a video comparing the categories
until they get their coverage right, im out

Is it legal to use it on street?
Even if the airbag of this suit is design for track

lol why wouldn’t this be legal? 😂
I’m 5’5 and weigh 150. What size should I order for this suit?
I am 5'6" (almost 5'7"), 130lbs, and size 44 euro fits me perfect, quite snug but not overly so. Dainese is great about returns if you haven't used the suit. It sounds like you'd want to try a 46 or even 44.
Hi im 5’4 95kg what size should i buy? Can it fit it with alpinestar supertech r boots?
Alpinestars SuperTech R boots will not work with the suit in my experience as the legs are cut wider than most to accommodate Dainese’s own ‘in’ boots
Great suit.....
What’s the difference between dainese s air mugello and Misano
Mugello is kangaroo leather, has a larger airbag and is way more expensive.
Would there be any jacket you would recommend for the street? I got a S1000rr and very new to the airbag system stuff but I’m very interested in getting something to keep me safer :)

What does having a S1000RR have to do with anything?
So shoulder airbags and that’s it, is this a FKN joke?
