Airhawk R Seat Cushion

schlappy95 · 06-10-2018, 11:57 PM

I have a 2013 Voyager with a stock seat and for the most part it does me fine. However, for the longer rides I am thinking about getting one of them Airhawk R Seat Cushion, I can't afford an after market seat. Does anyone use one and what's your review of it. Did you get the large or small size? Does it drastically increase seat height? Any info would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

I've used the Airhawk for a few years. The R Large will probably be the best fit and Revzilla has pretty good pricing. The trick to the Airhawk is how little air is used, just enough so when sitting level you are off the seat. Rocking side to side will feel like watching a lava lamp for the lack of a better description. I don't notice much of a difference in height maybe a half inch or so. My other alternative is switching to a BeadRider every now and then just to change things on a long ride.

I agree with Mark. I have had an Air Hawk for years and the trick is to put in as little air as possible! to much air will make it feel hard.

A Nice summation. But it is nice on long trips.

Another vote for minimal air in the Air Hawk. Over filling is a natural urge.

I used an Air H on my 07 Nomad for many, many miles. I now use it on my Goldwing. Works great. On occasions, I do swap it our with a BeadRider ever other gas stop. Also, the Beadrider is better on hot days allowing air to circulate under you butt.
