This inflatable suit stuff is crap. The REAL solution is the Spaceman Motorcycle Ejection Seat (SMES). I've been working on it in my garage for about a year now.
Using parts cannibalized from decommissioned jet-fighter aircraft, SMES uses both passive (activated by impact etc.) and rider-activated triggers to fire ejection rockets mounted under the motorcycle seat. The rider is propelled to a minimum of 1,500' altitude, where a Joint Precision Airdrop parachute is opened. The rider then steers his SMES to a safe landing zone up to 4,000 feet from the point of impact (better distances are possible depending on prevailing winds).
Options for the SMES under consideration include launch-activated GoPro cameras to document the accident and ejection, standard FAA-approved lighting in case the ejection occurs at night, and beverage holders with chemically-cooled beers to assist the ejectee in avoiding Post Traumatic Stress Disorder after the rigors of a high-speed, high-altitude ejection.
I'm accepting capital funding and stock ownership proposals if anyone is interested in getting in on the "ground floor" of this exciting technology.
