Apparel
Riding gear is very important for safety. Unlike cars,
a motorcycle offers no impact protection in an
accident.
Proper riding gear includes helmet, eye protection,
gloves, boots, long sleeve jacket and long trousers.
-
The helmet must meet the requirements listed
at page 14; if your helmet does not have a visor,
use suitable eye wear;
- Use five-finger gloves made from leather or
abrasion-resistant material;
- Riding boots or shoes must have non-slip soles
and offer ankle protection;
- Jacket, trousers or riding suit must be made from
leather or abrasion-resistant material and have
high-visibility colours and inserts.
Important
Never wear loose clothing, items or accessories
that may become tangled in motorcycle parts.
Important
For your safety, always wear suitable protective
gear, regardless of season and weather.
Important
Have your passenger wear proper protective
clothing.

intended use
Warning
The D-Air
®
protection system was developed by
DAINESE and tested by TÜV SÜD to be used on
asphalt only. Therefore, in order to avoid any
undesired activation of the Jacket and/or Waistcoat,
the relevant electronic device must be disabled when
riding off-road - by "off-road" we mean the track use
as well. Warning: with Jacket/Waistcoat electronic
device off, the rider and passenger protection is
disabled.
D-Air

is an innovative system designed for riders'
safety on the road. It has not been conceived for use
on uneven roads or off-road. The Jacket/Waistcoat
provided with the D-Air
®
Device can be worn by the
motorcycle rider and passenger.
