Helite Moto Reviews 

I have been wearing the vest now for more than 2 years - but thankfully never had need of it.
The only gripe, not even a complaint, is that it fits big. I'm a big chap, 230 lbs and 6'1", and my XL is actually too big.

Nice design, simple to use. Luckily I haven’t had the chance to test it.

I love the product. I feel much safer riding with my vest. That being said fitting is a small issue. The vest for touring long distance is uncomfortable. It hinders side to side head movement and sometimes rides up. The vest seems to be designed (turtle vest) for a more leaner over sports bike stance. For touring (goldwing GTL Etc.) It becomes very uncomfortable. Ease dont get me wrong I wear it every time. I just feel like the jacket or a redesigned touring version would be better. Again love the product

I am very happy with the Helite Moto air vest. I'm honestly not even aware that I have it on when I'm riding

Great piece of protection I love it and Feel more confident riding all six of my bikes however not happy with plastic clips or buckles when it scratches my gas tank on my sport bikes. All four of my sport bikes have scratches on gas tank. Other than that it has Been great.

Products were in stock and delivered in short order. I phoned customer service with questions prior to ordering, and they were very helpful and accommodating. Highly recommended.

Desde CHILE y junto a mi KTM 1290R, me siento seguro al transitar todas las fabulosas rutas, con mi chaleco airbag HELITE, recomendable 100%, un producto de alta calidad y excelente. La compra fue realizada en linea desde Chile, El Producto llego sin problema en el tiempo indicado, todo ok. saludos.

Love my jacket. Got the vest as a backup, but the jacket is so nice that I’ve hardly worn it yet. My girlfriend is starting to ride also. We will buy her a jacket before she hits the open road.

Great product and great customer service. Tge jacket saved me from a lot of pain in the 2 accidents I've had.

Excellent service on cartridge replacement. Explained things clearly so I could do it.
Quick delivery. Very satisfied. Thanks Zack. Paul

Excalent product

I have both the adventure jacket for colder weather and the vest that I partner with my summer jacket. I NEVER RIDE WITHOUT it. My friend went down on his bike after I badgered him to get a Helite. He had soft tissue damage yet way less than if he had a regular riding jacket. These work. Period. There is no reason except cheapness for not protecting your most valuable asset, your spine and neck. You can live without a limb but its gonna be a life of suckage to live paralyzed. The quality of the jacket is great. I did have to resew the inside of a pocket (I think my pen ripped it, but otherwise its been very durable, warm and water proof. The vest is awesome in the summer with lighter weight jackets.

Great products, but too heavy. Spidi is making a better more comfortable vest.

Great product that is simple to use and of very high quality. I have used a Helite vest for over 4 years and no problems. Fortunately I haven't had to test its life saving capabilities.

The leather jacket is quite heave but that's what it is expected. Air flow is excellent for summer ride. The only complain I have is that the leather around zipper head area curl up after a few weeks. Looked ugly. I hope it doesn't affect the function of the air bag.

I own 2 jackets and a vest from Helite. Their products are high quality, innovative and comfortable to wear. For me, a Helite air bag jacket is to a motorcyclist, what a bullet proof vest is to a cop or soldier. I don't ride without it.

I bought the vest so I could wear with various jackets. Good quality. I've been in an accident since but stayed on the bike so the vest didn't inflate. The weight of the vest feels natural after wearing a while. I see it as the equivalent of a seat belt in a car. A small price to pay to protect your back and neck against the unpredictability of the traffic/roads.

I've been using the turtle airbag vest (motorcycle) for 2+ years. I tried it once with friends, and it was great. Then I dropped my motorcycle on my garage ramp. It activated perfectly. (cost me another CO2 cartridge only).
I have the high-vis one, and as I ride ant night I like the huge reflective bands.
Another rider in the same garage at work apparently had an accident that totaled his bike, but his helite jacket activated and he had no real injuries. so quite nice.

Hi-Viz Horrible Appearance.
The hi- viz color is just horribly dirty. Additionally, nothing I’ve tried- that Helite recommended- helps whatsoever. The scuff marks from the seat, backrest, handling with gloves (?) seem to be permanently imbedded on the vest, both on the rear and front of the vest. Nothing seems to remove the dirt and scuff marks. A 2 year old vest looks like it’s 10 years old with no way to clean it to improve its looks. It’s an eyesore already!
