Description

Designed especially for professional motorcycle racers, the Professional Airbag Vest Helite e-GP Air is a tight-fit vest with excellent aerodynamics and room for a back protector. To provide maximum safety, the airbag is made of durable materials. Moreover, the front and back protectors act as a tortoise shell, making the vest tear resistant and absorbing the force of the impact. As a result, this vest protects your back, neck, spine, chest, ribs, pelvis, head, pancreas, liver and lungs. You may also appreciate its tight fit and stretch panels on the sides.

The Professional Airbag Vest Helite e-GP Air features a leather back part attached by Velcro. Therefore, when damaged, you will not need to replace the entire vest but only this part. Moreover, this part also allows you to add your own logos and patches. 

The Professional Airbag Vest Helite e-GP Air also introduces an electronic, multi-sensor airbag system technology which includes several on-board sensors that analyze the situation in real time and allow 360° detection. The sensor integrated in the vest (CDU) follows and analyzes the movements of the biker in real time. The optional fork sensor (SDU – not included) detects impacts on the motorcycle. When a fall or accident is detected, the airbag inflates automatically before impact.


Helite was founded in 2002 by Gérard Thevenot, one of France's pioneers and entrepreneurs in the world of aerospace. The combination of experienced staff and modern design solutions is behind Helite's success. The actual development, design and production take place in Dijon, France. Read more about why you should choose Helite products.

Each product has a serial number and is subject to continuous and output control. Helite uses the highest quality materials. From the airbag itself to the hardened firing pin and ball buckle, hardened plastic with nylon to the highCO2 cartridges (45gCO2 at 60 bar pressure, individually tested at 110°C).

The classic two-year warranty can be extended to 4 years by registering directly with Helite. You need to note the serial number (VIN) of your piece for both cases. You will find it next to the size description - as shown in the video. You can also use the number for any firmware updates.

We also offer a service consultation and possible airbag inspection after an accident. If there is irreparable damage after an accident, we offer a new airbag jacket or vest at 21% discount.
