Dual Sport

Hello to all who read this. This review will be shorter than others I've submitted. This Airhawk cushion really works! It takes a little experimentation to determine the best inflation setting for yourself. It may take a few tries before you find the adjustment that's yours. It did for me. But I rode Saturday morning, and you know what? Comfort on my seat never once entered my mind. Let's face it. Market seats aren't comfortable for extended rides, and genuine aftermarket padded seats prices are through the roof. I ride a Ninja Sports Bike and the rides are much more comfortable now. If you've ever read any of my reviews before and trusted them, than trust this one now. Peace

I bought this out of curiosity, fully expecting also to try a sheepskin and some roller beads too. People seem either to love these cushions or they just don't. I had no idea what to expect when I tried it out for the first time, and I was disappointed. It's not like sitting on a magic carpet.But, that's not really the point. I have a few hundred miles on mine now, and I've come to love and appreciate it. First, you have to fiddle with air pressures a bit to get it set up properly for your body. Less air is generally better than more. Once you've done that, that magic of this thing isn't that you feel like you're in a comfy lounge chair; it's that after two hours on your bike you don't feel like you're sitting on a rock.I like mine and use it all the time. If you buy one, take the time to fiddle with air pressures until you get it where you like it. Then, don't judge it based on a ride around town. Get out on the road and do a few hundred miles, and then be amazed that your butt isn't killing you.I ride a 2015 Kawasaki Versys 1000LT. The riding position is pretty upright. I'm a tall guy, and I've adjusted the bike so it fits me well to start with. If you throw this cushion on a bike expecting it to fix basic ergonomic problems, or if you expect it to do something special on trips around town, you may be disappointed. If you like to get on a well set up bike and do a few hundred miles at a time, you may really appreciate it.This cushion gets four stars from me. It's well-made, but at $108 it's a pricey gamble for most folks. At $69.95 it would be a five-star no-brainer.

Made my mt-03 seat much more comfortable. With the stock seat my bum starts to hurt after about 45m to an hour. I can go hours and hours with this airhawk seat with no amount of pain. Adds maybe an inch to the seat height

The product does as advertised but misses the mark a bit due to the larger air chamber coupled with thin material. I think some of the "squish" could be removed (improved) if one or two things were changed. Either make the air chamber material thicker or simply make the chamber ( part you add air to) thinner. One could also argue that by adding some sort of foam blanket (containment pad that surrounds the air pad while making the air pad thinner would be better. Oh well, solved my issue for longer trips and I like that it can be deflated and stowed away for when I ride off road. Too much air makes it feel like i'm riding on a balloon, too little and it is a bit squirmy.

Bought one for myself and one for my passenger, before maybe an hour of riding and I was ready for an break, after, I’ve rode up to 16 hours a day and up early next morning for more. Definitely a great purchase , if you have a crummy seat I highly would recommend one, you won’t be sorry.

A lot more comfort without the purchase of a new seat. Only requires a small an amount of air.

Great for street bikes but on dirt bikes the air pad moves too much for adventure riding in trails and steet.

I put this on my DRZ400SM for a long weekend up in the Smokey Mountains. Anyone who's ever sat on an OEM dirt bike seat knows it's akin to a rough prostate exam after about an hour. This made my seat and all day throne. The only issue I have is those straps that go under the seat. Yes, they work, but it's wise to remove the Airhawk overnight so it's not wet in the morning and the straps can retract under the seat and be a pain to get back out unless you remove the seat again. Perhaps I'm using them too tight, but it keeps the Airhawk centered during use.
