Airhawk R Seat Pad
The last mile feels like the first, thanks to AIRHAWK's exclusive Shape Fitting Technology®. This patented system eliminates painful points and promotes consistent blood flow for a longer, more comfortable ride. Memory foam can't do it. Gel seat can't do it. Only a genuine Airhawk R Seat cushion can do it. The neoprene AIRHAWK's stretchy material has a much more substantial and luxurious feel, especially at the end of a long day in the saddle.
Features:
- Center cutout area runs from front to back of cushion
- Re-designed cell geometry improves airflow under the rider = no hot seat
- Back cutaway allows for a tail bone relief area with a tapered transition for increased comfort
- Cushion comes standard with cover, attachment loops, and cruiser straps.
- Cushion Material: Neoprene rubber
- Cover Material: Stretch polyester material top cover. Side panels are 3-layer knit polyester providing air circulation. Fluid-proof, non-skid base is easy to clean and durable.
- Dimensions: 15.25" Wide x 14" Deep x 2" Tall (39.5 cm x 35.5 cm x 5 cm)
- 3 year limited warranty

Awesome product
I purchased this for a 500 plus mile ride to dragons tail and being on a sport bike this product went the extra mile. It took a little getting used to but after that perfect absolutely 0 fatigue from sitting most of the day. installation and adjustments are simple. I would highly recommend to anyone for the long rides.

Works as promised !
The directions provided were easy to understand and execute. The fit and finish of the Air Hawk are excellent. I can tell it is well made and should stand up to the punishment I will inflict. I could tell after just a few miles that this was what I needed to rid my riding of tailbone pain caused by a fall 5 years ago... After my first complete ride I could dismount without a crane. Wat to go Air Hawk. I just wish I had not waited so long to try your wonderful R model. BTW good price also.

A must for long rides
I could finally test the Airhawk R on a 600km long one-day ride and both my back and behind can testify that it's working like a dream. It was no problem fitting the Airhawk R on a Honda VFR1200 seat.

NIcely made
Think it should help for longer trips. Time will tell..

Is a ride extender
I've only had this product for a couple of weeks so I can't comment on the durability, though it seems to be made well from good materials.
The performance is exactly as promised. The small air bladders are interconnected, so you don't get any "hot spots", nor do you sag down excessively. It works great.

Feels great!
Just recieved and started to use Airhawk R Seat Pad. Although I did not have the opportunity to test it on a long drive, it is promissing.
I have a broken tailbone and prostatitis both of which becomes painful after a few miles of riding. When sitting on Airhawk, I experience no pain what so ever; at least for short distances.

Good Product - Does what I need
I purchased the AirHawk R not to use every day but to give me an alternative on long rides on my Spyder. I love my Corbin seats, but after about 3 hours my lower back starts to hurt. So now, at the first sign of pain, I pull out my AirHawk and the pain goes away. It's not difficult to set up and does not slip at all on my seat. It appears to be well made and fits easily in my saddle bags when not in use.

Makes long commutes better
Easy install works as advertised makes a huge diffrence on long commutes 70 plus miles each way. Before I was readjusting alot to take preassure off critical areas but now I'm not. Little pricey, seems like it will wear well. Happy with purchase and do recommend. Use on ZG14 fits perfect.

I ride a KTM Duke 200 and do alot of touring on it! Great bike, seat hard as a rock!! Was wondering if this would work well on the duke or would you recommend getting a gel pad on the bike? We're going to be riding approximately 5000 km in about 20 days later this year and have been really thinking on what to invest in?

I like this better than the small 12 x 18 Airhawk because of the center void.
I know its larger, but would it be the best comfort choice?

Answer:
Yes, the Airhawk R would certainly be a good fit for the 650 GS. The Airhawk is actually shaped very similar to your seat and will fit more naturally due to its shorter front to back distance. I can personally attest that the "R" version is the most comfortable of the lineup.5 months, 2 weeks ago

Answer:
I have an F800GS which is a bit bigger seat. I picked the S size, and it fits the seat nicely. I think the R is a bit too wide, but it does have the channel in the middle which seems like a good feature. I think it'll look a bit weird as it's so much wider than the seat, but it might be worth it for the channel. I wouldn't worry about losing functionality due to the added width, that'll just hang over and not be much of an issue.Age: 25-34

Answer:
No, you will not be able to upholster the Airhawk R Seat Pad. The whole point of that product is to cost less and be easier to install than a custom seat.11 months ago
Answer:
I wouldn't recommend it as I think the leather would reduce the ability of the air to shift around. Perhaps if you used really supply leather, it might work out, but you have to consider that you need to keep access to the air valve (different temperatures and elevations require the air amount to change a bit), and if you get a puncture somehow it would be nice to be able to get in there to patch it. Overall, probably too much of a hassle.Age: 25-34

Answer:
In my opinion it could be done on the right bike and by a talented seat maker.First you'd need to measure your current seat to see if the dimensions are close to what you have or would work with your bike since I see no way to alter the shape of the Airhawk (nor would you likely want to).
Your seat maker would need to allow for access to the air valve (small zipper or such) but it's going to be a bit awkward given it's location (rear left corner of pad). You'd likely need to find a rubber or vinyl tube that would slip onto the mouthpiece of the air valve since trying to get to in mounted on the bike would be "interesting" to say the least.
I think you need to ride with it and get it adjusted to you before having the seat made so you'd know what thickness you're dealing with (since it quite variable by the rider). ROHO, the manufacturer, recommends about 1/2" of air but it's really up to you.
Potentially the most difficult part would be not having the cover on the seat restrict the Airhawk since it's designed to move air around as you move or shift in your seat. That means a traditional cover of vinyl or leather could really restrict things, especially if pulled taut to get all the wrinkles out.
Also, the Airhawk has mesh sides on its cover to allow airflow in and around the air chambers to eliminate hot spots. This would be kind of tricky to incorporate into a seat but the right seat maker could probably do it.
Bottom line, I think it could be done but it will be quite the challenge and likely expensive since it will take a really experienced and talented seat maker to get it right. I'd suggest getting one and riding on it for a bit to see if it "does it" for you. If it doesn't you can take advantage of the return policy.
Good luck.

This pad isn't designed specifically for that seat, but would come quite close in shape. As long as it was attached well, it should not be a problem.1 year ago
Answer:
Hi,In my opinion the answer would be "no". The Airhawk-R is shaped kind of like a tractor seat and intended, as best I can tell, for cruiser style (or at least wide seat) bikes. I think if you tried to wrap the R model around the sides of the seat you'd loose the effectiveness of the thing.
They may have other models that would fit an R1 but not this one in particular.

The Airhawk R Seat Pad will fit a variety of bikes, as long as the bike's seat measurements align similarly to the seat pad's measurements of 15.25" Wide x 14" Deep x 2" Tall (39.5 cm x 35.5 cm x 5 cm).1 year ago
Answer:
I'm not personally familiar with the Fz6 but I looked at some photos. Since the Airhawk R model is shaped a bit like a tractor seat it would seem pretty wide for the Fz6 seat.After riding on the Airhawk it's my impression that it wouldn't work very well if it wasn't completely supported across its base. That's because of the way the air chambers interconnect. I think if the edges of the Airhawk protruded past the edges of your bike seat that it would be uncomfortable and not very supportive. It could also seem to shift around (as the air moved between chambers) and this could potentially be unsettling on a sport bike in more spirited riding.
