Abstract

The rider's behavior and injury at the motorcycle collision influence greatly motorcyde body form, such as existence of a side cowl. Our goal is to clarify the influence of the constraint condition for rider's lower legs on injury level at the side collision of a motorcycle with airbag. As a result, head injury decreased depending on constraining rider's lower legs by side cowl. Moreover, head injury decreased by the device held the thighs downward without any injury.
