Airhawk2 seat pad

[Ridem32_imp]

I just ordered the airhawk2 seat pad model # AH2PLN. 11x9 should fit the front part of the seat if not I can return for refund or exchange. I will post when I get it Thursday

I have a regular Airhawk (Airhawk1, I guess) that I use on my cruisers for multi-day jaunts and it rocks. I often ride two gas stops with and then a couple without to change the seating a bit. My wife will use hers (constantly) for anything over 150 miles.

I bought an Airhawk last year and they are nice on long journeys, especially on the Interstates.
On twisty roads they are less desirable as you feel somewhat disconnected to the bike.
I have tried sheepskin, beads, monkey butt powder on long trips.
All work ok to some degree .
Took my 2014 DLX out again and I think that I lean towards using a Corbin seat on that one as well.
I like the little wider part of the Corbin and the back support if you sit back in the seat, on the stock you slide more forward and on the Corbin you slide back.

I'm also a big fan of the Airhawk series....currently use a medium cruiser size Airhawk 2 on my big Triumph for long hauls and love it. I recently found out there is new Airhawk DS that may fit the CB1100 seats well.

I've been running the A/H standard cruiser seat on the CB from Day 1. I bought it for my DL1000 and kept it when I sold that bike. Its a perfect fit on the OEM saddle and makes all-day rides a breeze. Best $80 I ever spent on any bike, by far.

I do like the looks of this other model though. The cruiser style doesn't look that great when I'm off the bike.

I just got the Airhawk R. It is very comfortable. I plan to use it for trips longer than a couple hrs.

Wouldn't travel any distance on the CB without an AirHawk. I think mine's the small cruiser model like Hittheroads.

The one i orderd is made for a rear seat pillon 11x9 it might be to small but I will let y'all know.

I am willing to try anything at this point, but lord it looks lumpy and fugly.

How does it attach to the seat.

It is better to put little air as possible in for optimum results.

Usually there is a set of straps. Here's a link I found showing the new "DS" model which may look better on the CB1100:

I hope mine comes with straps. It might come tomorrow. I hope. . My butt will be grinning lol

The Airhawk R does come with straps. It looks lumpy because of the individual baffles are only filled with about 1/4 with air. Once you sit on it, you can't even tell there's baffles. It's defiantly worth the money.

I've got the R version as well, and it's definitely helpful. I use it primarily because I managed to injure my tailbone last year, so sitting anywhere gets to be painful after a bit. Since the R version has the split in the center, it keeps anything from contacting. It's also made the stock seat considerably more comfortable. I've been considering lowering my bars as well, we'll see about that in a month or so.

As far as being lumpy and fugly... well, that's certainly true. However, I don't use mine if I'm only going to be on the bike for less than 30 minutes at a time, and it's really fast and easy to get off and on the bike. It'd be different if the seat were bolted on the CB.

I just got home from the gambling boat. He have them on the Mississippi River they are huge. Played a little poker and rode back home it's about. 50 miles one way. Got home and my airhawk seat pad was home. It fits the front of the seat perfect ! As you can see in pics it goes rite to the hump in the drivers seat. I put it on but have not rode it yet.

 

[Cormanus]

They are very comfortable when you're in the saddle all day.

Look forward to hearing how you get on with it Michael. Remember not to have too much air in it.

 

[Ridem32_imp]

I will let y'all know. I will adj the air. It says to to sit on it and let air out untill you kinda sink into it. Just sitting on it I can tell it will help some. It's a small pad made for a back pallon seat. But it seems to fit the front part of the seat fine. I will find out. If I need a bigger one I got 30 days to return it for refund or exchange.

Ridem,

I just ordered a Airhawk 2 for the ST. You can try it out when I get there if you want.

And I'm going to try it on my CB too of course.
