[NJSBMWR] Airbag system from Merlin

[William Dudley]

I think the "cervical collar" feature of the Helite is important.

But I'm glad to see other companies coming into the marketplace.  That
should foster wider adoption.
I also think it's possible that fear of lawsuits may be keeping some
companies
out of the market, just as was (possibly) true for the beginnings of ABS on
motorcycles,
when only BMW dared to equip bikes with ABS.

Oh, and a reminder: I have coupons good for a discount on the Helite.  Just
ask me.
(You don't need the physical coupon to take advantage of it.)
