KEY FEATURES

Motorcycle / Equestrian hybrid lanyards are sometimes supplied with the purchase of any new Helite Airvest or jacket. The hybrid version is usually required for customers that both ride motorcycles and horses. In the event you require a spare one or own more than one motorbike or saddle additional lanyards can be purchased.

The Helite lanyard system uses a multi-directional key-ball trigger – this is a proven safe and effective mechanical system for accidents even at low speed. However it is important that you fit this lanyard correctly – please see the user manual for more information.

Fitting your Helite Hybrid Lanyard (to your bike/saddle) – THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!!

  • Never attach the lanyard to the handle bars.
  • The lanyard would ideally be attached under the seat around a robust tube of the frame.
  • You should make a loop with the buckle at the most convenient location on the motorcycle
  • The closer the lanyard is to your centre of gravity when seated on the vehicle the better.
  • Try out the length and adjust it until you reach an optimal length.
  • It should only be tight when you are stood up.
  • If the length of the strap is too long the inflation of the airbag jacket could be delayed.
  • We strongly recommend that you get one lanyard per motorcycle/horse riding saddle and you leave each lanyard securely attached to the bike/saddle.
  • Keep it away from anything sharp or abrasive that could damage or weaken the strap.
  • Keep it away from hot elements that could damage or weaken the strap.
