We are delighted that you gave it two thumbs up. We always enjoy seeing and hearing reviews. Thank you.

I tried Airhawks full, almost empty, and everywhere in between, and I never found comfort. I believe some of us need firm support. I have tried so many pads, so many seats, and what I have on my bike right now is the Pro Pad SuprCruzr sheepskin. After some time I finally strapped it to the seat because it's staying there.

I had a back injury years ago and can't ride without one. It's comfortable enough to sit on but for me the main advantage is it stops shock and vibration going up my back. Without it I'm crippled in 10 miles.

I bought an Airhawk for my R1200RT and it has worked out pretty well. I would say after 4-500 mile days I still feel tired, just not as bad. Thanks guys, cheers from Phoenix, AZ!

Hey buddy. Welcome to the channel :)

A friend bought one of these in prep for a 6,000 mile tour out west. We ride 'Wings. I have a Corbin seat. I tried to get him to get one also. Somewhere in WY he frisbeed this aircushion AND one of those bead net contraptions off the side of a mountain pull off. He must have been in pure pain most of the trip. 400 to 700 miles a day on a stock seat! What a man! 5600 miles in 13 days.

Great review guys, thank you.

Great to see you Toby!

I bought one , anxious to try it out.

Very informative video, as always. Thanks for the tip.

No probs buddy. Ride safe :)

Rode with one for about 3 years , very comfortable , but a bit of a rolling feeling under your bum . Repaired it with a tyre patch a few times , it eventually gave way at the seams . Maybe I had too much air on board . Kev

Ride a Deluxe with Danny Gray Buttcrack Seat.Not bad for 200-300 miles. Any farther I put on my Air Hawk.Got me from Ohio to Alaska and back.About 10,000 miles. When filling the seat,fill it tight.Sit on it and then let out air to desired feel

"Something close to my heart". "Did i say heart" Cracked me up 🤣

I just bought one a few mins ago after reading and watching at least 10 reviews. I hope to goodness it works as well as the reviews claim. My tailbone is sore lol. BMW 1250 GSA here.

Just picked up one of these for my Indian scout bobber stock seat is hard as a rock hope this helps

I bought one of these a few years back after a bike accident and ended up with lower back pain..Before this i could only cover 20miles before having to get off and walk around and do some stretch exercises. Once fitted i could cover 50-60miles. Well worth it if you have a back problem or just for long rides.

Thanks guys!

They help alot . If you have a wide seat ,and a wide airhawk , you're perfect. If its narrow, its so -so.

I have an Airhawk and a Wild ass I like both. I find the airhawk a little large compared to the wild ass but would recomend them to anyone.

You guys crack me up!

Seems to work magic for many, but I tried one a few years back and couldn't find an air pressure that worked (from almost empty to full). Because the sit bones compress the sides, unless it's completely empty, the remaining air is being pushed up in the middle, creating another pressure point. And damn must they have insane margins on these...it's basically a plastic bag with a valve.

Just re-watching as just bought one for the Explorer. Looking forward to finding out how it performs as the triumph seat starts gives a numb bum after 2/3 hours.

Here in Japan the ferry staff put a thick folded blanket on the bike seat before they strap down the bike. No problems with crushed seat foam. Thanks for the review, fellas. I am considering a Honda NC750X whose seat is apparently a weak point on the bike.

I ordered my Air Hawk earlier in the week, coming up from Melbourne and will arrive in QLD Monday.$180.00. If it's half as good as everyone says they are I'll be grinning like a rat with a gold tooth.

Morning guys from KL. What size Airhawk would you recommend for a R1200GS (2018)? Got back to riding after a long absence and planning long touring up into Thailand and beyond and even 250km rides are feeling a tad painful at the rear so looking to opt for the Airhawk - any suggestion would be great! Thanks for the vids. Informative with humour!!

Whenever I tour I ALWAYS use my Airhawk Seat. I've toured without it on a ZZR and after a couple of days my a**e was aching like hell and ruined the tour to be honest.

Can't recommend them highly enough.

I’m sure they do. Have a gander on their website as you might need to measure your seat to see which one would be best :)

Expensive! Here is an alternative: Buy an inflatable seat cushion for just a few bucks on eBay or Amazon. They are surprisingly comfortable and durable/long lasting. You can get a dark pillowcase, cut it to size for a covering (sew the opening closed or add zipper). Attach straps (bungee cord, Velcro, etc.) to secure it to your bike. You could probably do this for about $15 - $20. True air cushions are far superior than any other cushion, but you need NOT spend a lot of money as even cheap ones hold up well. And, should you lose it, no big deal.

Interesting review gents. I was sold the "adventure" size seat last year for my (2017)GSA, but that is much smaller than the "cruiser" seat you have. I've done 25000km on it so far and I would say I'm happy to have it there, but I'm not amazed by it. So, I'm wondering now if I was sold the wrong size for the bike? Given the price, I'm reluctant to throw it away and try again. Cheers, DS

The AirHawk is soft and comfortable. But you're not as free to move around on the seat, which also is something that helps with fatigue. The stock seat of my 2015 R1200GSA is very soft, soft enough that using the AirHawk is actually worse than without. If you have a harder seat (a R1150GS for example), then the AirHawk may be useful.

I'm sure they are good seats but they are priced outrageously. If this was a domestic product it would be a fifth of the price. Ok- so low economies of scale keep the price up a bit, but almost all products with the name "motorcycle" attached to them results in a rip-off price. This is just a rubber base with a fabric cover. It's not miracle science. Tourtec do a similar seat for a far lower price.
