Leathers with airbags...

Dainese testing race leathers with electronically-operated airbags The Biker Gene

These are kind of neat.
The other thread reminded me of them.
I rented a DVD from netflix not too long ago and it had a bit in it about these.

Here's the video from that link.. Site says it’s strictly a racing system at the moment, under trial by Dainese-sponsored 125GP riders, all of whom have taken the opportunity to put the airbag through its paces in race and practice crashes.

A road version will likely be investigated once Dainese are happy with the system’s performance on track.

could be a cool thing but I would be afraid of the Gyros "arn't those sandwiches" could you imagine that thing going off white slamming the bike into a conner or on a high speed run.
