3.1 Envelope of Protection for STREET MODE
In Street Mode, the Tech-Air® 10 System is active only when the System Check is passed (see
chapter 12) and after having started riding for approximately 10 seconds. Once activated,
the System remains active even if the rider stops, and until the System is manually switched
off, to offer protection also in a stationary condition when the motorcycle is hit by a vehicle
as described in the Envelope of Protection conditions (see Section 3.1.2).
As summarized in Table 1, in Street Mode the Envelope of Protection includes:
- Crashes against Obstacles
- Stationary Crashes
- Low-Side Crashes
- High-Side Crashes
