Dainese D-Air Misano Perforated Race Suit Review at RevZilla.com

Dainese D-Air Misano Perforated Race Suit Review
www.revzilla.co...
The Dainese D-Air Misano Perforated Race Suit represents a quantum leap in motorcycle protection. It is changer of the game. Plain and simple. With the D-Air system having been utilized at the top-tier of motorcycle racing for years, it has as-of-yet been unavailable here in the American market. With its introduction riders will get an intelligent protection system that combines a wireless airbag system with a profoundly advanced microprocessor that works to continually monitor rider orientation, speed, and overall body alignment. In the event of a crash, these airbags will deploy within a blink of an eye; literally. They reach full inflation within 80 milliseconds! All of this inside one of the most high-end leather race suits in the game. The Dainese Misano Race Suit with D-Air technology is firmly seated at the front of the line.

Does it come with immortality?

[@AlbertVicol]

The Most badass suit ! Expensive but when we talk about should you rather pay 1000 US more or get a broken bone to bug your whole life , I say it is worth it every penny !

[@natestewart7668]

Don't forget a more expensive hospital bill than what this suit is worth for collarbone surgery.

[@AlbertVicol]

Here in Norway would be free , but stll that to be thought too !

[@hcmpeyang5682]

+THB So you valhalla guys enjoy lying on Hospital beds than racing with winds.....

[@demisx]

@@AlbertVicol nothing is free. How’s your taxes?

[@MonoMoto]

D-Air is probably the biggest safety addition since ABS. I think it is a nobrainer to get this. Is your life worth it ?

[@ZekieNYC13]

I'm 5-10 190 lb and wear a 54 With back protector it's a little snug but once I'm in the race position feels like I'm riding naked

[@tinuheiniger9706]

I bought the Dainese Air Misano in April 2017. The electronics department said goodbye after two weeks. Dainese has returned the jacket four times not working. Currently we have at the end of October 2017, that is, more than half a year later and Dainese does not seem to be able to solve this problem. I warn all motorcyclists with the D-Air Misano 2017 that this system is suspected to work very unreliably. In the meantime I was offered another system. It is a pity that this took six months.

[@Xolition]

Awesome system, glad to see some safety advances from Dainese!

[@NAZLSI]

Hey Adam, Great Video as always, Can you make a Dainese race suit review video where you explain the differences between all the suits?

[@RevZilla]

Who's Adam? Perhaps you meant Anthony? Anywho, as Dainese's new suit models are introduced over multiple years, any comparison video we made would likely be out of date in a year, as one or more of the suits included would probably be discontinued. Therefore, we'll probably stick to making individual product videos. If you want to discuss the differences in detail, feel free to reach out to one of our Gear Geeks at 877-792-9455 or [e-mail]. -DrewZilla

[@luisdiegocr]

I think this one is for the serious track racer (pro, semi-pro, or enthusiastic) and if you are that serious spending money into racing, this is the suit to go.

[@hadescorp1475]

So is this model the highest model out of all Dainese race suit product?

[@RevZilla]

Yes, the D-Air Misano is currently the highest Dainese race suit. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-d-air-race-suit

[@RTEPBCARD]

+RevZilla Great video as always. If its not too much trouble though, could you do a comparison video on the race suites like what you do with your other merchandise? I think it would be helpful to myself and others to start with a baseline. Maybe break them into subcategories? Just a though, very helpful stuff either way!

[@RevZilla]

+Ryan Cardell We'll definitely consider doing so. If you need help narrowing down your search, I encourage you to call or email our Gear Geeks at 877-792-9455 or [e-mail]. -DrewZilla

[@patapata17]

... can wait for x-mas to make it mine :) AWESOME SUIT

[@RevZilla]

+Adam & Cath Coleman Based on your measurements and feedback, you'd likely be 60. -DrewZilla

[@mathlover101hotmail]

Does Dainese ever plan to introduce the airbag for their street jackets like RS Taichi did?

[@RevZilla]

+FSociety The Dainese Airbag jacket for the street is already available in Europe, but we don't know when it will arrive in the US. -DrewZilla

[@togair9]

can you guys please show the entire suit at once.. like a full view --- why just waist up or section by section? we want see how it looks fully..

[@RevZilla]

+togair9 We'll try to do so in the future. It's tough to get a wide-enough angle shot in that studio. Thanks for the feedback! -DrewZilla

[@dbang8799]

Hi im 5’4 95kg what size should i buy?

[@vikinglongboat1966]

I think the question may have been asked but I just want to get some clarification. On Dainese website it states the following: D-air® Racing was designed to be used exclusively on the track and is not for road use. Why ? What happens or doesn't happen if I only use it on the street? Cheers

[@RevZilla]

All we can provide is Dainese's disclaimer: _"The D-Air Racing I.P.S. must be used exclusively on racetracks, or in other words, on circuits closed to traffic and under no circumstances must be used on public roads or in normal traffic. The System does not offer any type of protection against direct impact with obstacles."_ -DrewZilla

[@CycleDoc675]

I just purchased this suit from you guys (same style as Hi-Viz Brian). I am struggling to find the answers to the following 2 questions: 1) Can I wear my current Dainese Wave back protector with scapula protection with the D-Air system? 2) Should I wear my current Dainese chest protector with the D-Air system?

[@RevZilla]

+CycleDoc675 Dainese recommends you wear the included back protector, as wearing your own with the scapula protection might be too bulky or interfere with the D-air system. You should be able to wear a chest protector, though, as the race airbag doesn't come down that far on the chest. -DrewZilla

[@GenuineStLouisBusiness]

Is this suit noticeably heavier, with all the electronics? And do they have prohibitions about riding in the wet?

[@RevZilla]

+Geisz Agency The electronics are actually lightweight, so there's no noticeable difference. Also, yes, you can ride in the wet. -DrewZilla

[@khai6101]

How does the D-Air suit compare to the A* Tech-Air suit?

[@RevZilla]

+Khai We don't have any specific information on Alpinestars' Tech-Air Suit, as they're not offering that in the US as of yet, so it's tough to compare specifics. -DrewZilla

[@SkeeMaskRecords187]

My girl said of I get a bike ..its A must I have this

[@natewallinger9270]

cebeeasy skeemask records Well at least she's thinking about your safety.

[@VictorRodriguez-gg6pb]

what exactly it's meant by not being your track weekend warrior suit exactly? not recommended for track day riders, I see you guys don't have my size when would it be available?

[@RevZilla]

+Victor Rodriguez Oh, he just means that it's in a league of its own, top of the line. It's a step up from most other race suits. -DrewZilla

[@chrisyurczak9517]

Maybe this is mentioned in the video, I'm not finished watching yet, but what is the difference between the d-air 2014 and the d-air misano?

[@RevZilla]

The 2014 version was not offered here in the US, and we don't have any specific differences between the two, if any at all. -DrewZilla

[@steviejam73]

When choosing a size, is it normal for the suit to be tight on the collar bones and down the chest when trying to stand up straight? Will the suit loosen up over time?

[@RevZilla]

Yes, that's normal. The suit is not cut for standing upright. It's cut for the race tuck riding position on the bike. However, it will loosen up a little bit over time. -DrewZilla

[@jlopez2351]

Dainese Misano D Air 2 Pls do some review thanks

[@GT6SuzukaTimeTrials]

I could only justify the price if I was making money on my motorcycle lol but don't get me wrong, if I won the lottery, I'd buy this in a heartbeat.

[@darkthrottle6663]

Getting a made to order d air mugello from kangaroo not even available In the us yet 😍

[@hcmpeyang5682]

The same question with Adam. I am 6' and 200 pounds. 42' Chest 36' Waist I always put Dainese 54-56 jacket and 56 or 110 pants. Are you sure 52 will fit the guy of 180 cm and 90 kgs?

[@RevZilla]

+hcmpe yang As you may have seen in the video, Brian is 6', 195 pounds, 42" chest (35.5" belly-button waist), and the size 52 he's wearing is appropriately snug/tight. You may just be used to wearing Dainese a little loose, as I'd recommend size 52 or perhaps 54 at the most. Race suits are basically a second skin. -DrewZilla

[@207Richy]

Could you use this for street riding or had the system only been set up for track?

[@RevZilla]

+Sangus Brule If you care to wear a full leather suit on the street, then yes, you can wear it on the street. -DrewZilla

[@windyrun7979]

What are the advantages of this versus a comparable suit and the helite GP vest. Considering this or the laguna seca 4 with gp vest

[@RevZilla]

The Helite Vest uses a tether system to deploy, so it doesn't deploy in as many situations. With the Helite, you have to be separated far enough from the bike for the tether to release and deploy the airbag. The Dainese D-Air system is much smarter and doesn't require a tether. The D-Air's accelerometers know when a crash is occurring and knows whether or not to deploy the airbag. -DrewZilla

[@MierzejMega]

What suit do you recommend for skinny riders? i have problem with that

[@RevZilla]

+Bartek Mierzejewski Dainese in general is good for skinnier riders. If you're tall and skinny, also look at Spidi. -DrewZilla

[@brilliantspeedsuperbikes]

Do you wear a chest and back protector with this suit?

[@RevZilla]

Yes, you still want to wear a chest and back protector. The airbag enhances the protection. -DrewZilla

[@TheVigilantStewards]

What is the most advanced safety gear for people looking to get into riding and are not going to be doing track days at first?

[@RevZilla]

+Carmelo Santini There are really so many options out there, so I recommend to take a look at our Gear Guides to see what appeals to you. You can also speak to a Gear Geek by phone or email at 877-792-9455 or [e-mail]. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle-gear-guides

[@sjbell86]

+Carmelo Santini Get a reasonably priced two piece that holds up to beginner/intermediate level track riding. You'll be able to stand it on the street and wear the jacket with riding jeans if you're just cruising around. Later on down the road if you find yourself getting serious you can add a one piece suit to the mix if you want to step up protection.

[@TheVigilantStewards]

***** Thanks!

[@latesh4]

Hey Revzilla, I bought the suit but i cant find the registration link on the website ... please help?

[@RevZilla]

If you purchased the suit from RevZilla, please email [e-mail]. If you purchased the suit elsewhere, you would need to contact that dealer. -DrewZilla

[@gcirc]

Is this suitable for your average ride/ or day to day ride ? If not what would people recommend? I'm new to the world of motorbikes just bought a gsxr L4 2014

[@kc_ink_addict9079]

i wear alpinestars jaws v2 jacket and their track pants and work great for me

[@RevZilla]

Most would consider a race suit to be a bit much for day to day riding, but some people do use them on the street. -DrewZilla

[@natewallinger9270]

RevZilla Probably because race suits are some of the safest types of clothing you can buy for riding.

[@Spongeboy0]

Wow, Hi Viz Brian is growing a beard

[@bradharlander2186]

Is the air bag system removable so if it does deploy I can just use a back protector with a kidney belt

[@RevZilla]

If the system deploys, you can remove the included back protector and use a backup back protector instead. -DrewZilla

[@bradharlander2186]

RevZilla alright thanks

[@RevZilla]

You're welcome! -DrewZilla

[@anthonyli8081]

Does the Gloves-to-sleeve InnerTech System come with this suit?

[@RevZilla]

+Anthony Li No, the InnerTech system does not come with this suit. Here are all the items featuring InnerTech though (rvz.la/20Vz3Kq). -DrewZilla

[@anthonyli8081]

RevZilla so is that mean in gloves from dainese cannot be use in this model?

[@trackaddict8490]

I've just purchased a misano suit, but I can't find any back protector? Should it have one? If so, which one?

[@RevZilla]

Like traditional race suits, it does not include a back protector. The D-Air system is intended to be used alongside a traditional race-style back protector. Dainese recommends their Wave Back Protector, though most race-style back protectors are acceptable. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-wave-d1-air-back-protector

[@Nessal83]

Mine came with a backprotector that was in a separate bag that came with the suit....same bag that the charger and booklet was in.

[@trackaddict8490]

Cheers, they had just forgot to give it me! They sent one out next day.

[@SashiDe]

when is this available for order??

[@RevZilla]

It's already available. -DrewZilla *www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/dainese-d-air-race-suit

[@SashiDe]

Sorry, I meant when is the Mugello D-Air available to order?

[@RevZilla]

I apologize, we do not yet know when the Mugello D-Air will be available. -DrewZilla

[@beozzie690]

This is the motherload of all suits,,

[@sonicnofadz]

Much cheaper to just use an inflatable vest over your regular suit triggered via tether. This is an awesome system, but probably not affordable for the typical (US) racer that is crashing 2-3 times a season (at least).

[@ZekieNYC13]

No shoulder protection in the vests

[@mathlover101hotmail]

+sonicnofadz tether systems do not't activate as fast.

[@sonicnofadz]

True about the lack of shoulder protection. I disagree about the speed in which they deploy. I have crash footage of a guy who high sided in front of me, his tether system inflated way before he even hit the ground. YMMV

[@Concordeagle]

I have the sidi vest tethered airbag and it's unusable on the track, main reason is the airbag around the neck area prevents me from looking up while leaned over.

[@jamesn676]

Could he possibly look any less comfortable in that suit. Lmao.

[@MajorMustang1117]

I feel like I'm listening to an auctioneer at times..

[@XzGrimreap3rzX]

Is it just me or do all the guys who model the jackets/suits always look really awkward.

[@churchofmarcus]

It's hard not look awkward in these precurved one piece suits. They are pretty much designed to make it hard to move.

[@annatjeh]

Haha what do you say in the first 5 seconds?

[@RevZilla]

+Anna Geerdink He says, "Hey, this is Anthony with RevZillaTV, where you can watch, decide, and ride! Welcome to our detailed breakdown of the new Dainese D-Air Suit, available at RevZilla.com." -DrewZilla

[@gregor197533]

pronunciation of misano is mizano

[@rickoconnell4557]

No, he is right, is Misano, not Mizano

[@F-14_Jockey]

Did Dianese miss the fact that in California for instance, people wear their full leathers when riding the canyons (includes street riding on the way to the canyons). This suit lacks chest protection for this type of riding and it's needed. A simple search on youtube will show why. The jacket set up is just as bad in that it lacks shoulder protection... are you kidding? I can understand the race suit configuration for track only... but Dianese just lost a whole market segment. I have to say that Alpinestars has a better overall set up for canyon riders... too bad.

[@TWIRKNOLOVE]

Imagine being sued by joe-shmo canyon rider because he said his suit didn't protect him when he collided into a canyon wall because he was so confident Dainese said it would. They're not going to jump on that liability wagon for good reason. I frequent SoCal canyons every other weekend and still understand.
