Bikes in my info at right. Ride On says sensors need to be hermetically sealed so sealant won't damage them.

Re: Back protectors moan
Nice to have that as an option. There are air bag vests that have back protectors so you don't need one in the jacket. Plus some of them have a lower level of protection and you end up buying a better one anyway.

Re: proshift in turns and down I go
