how often do motorcycle accidents happen at a perfect right angle like that anyway. more often the bike is laid over, or at least on it way down at the point of impact. then.....an airbag would likely not do a darn thing.

neat idea though

arent most fatalities from that exact type of accident though? When a car pulls out in front of you from an alley/driveway or an intersection, youre gonna hit it at 90 degrees from the side like that. I think thats Honda's goal here, and I think its a pretty good idea.
