    Default First impressions Airhawk

    Hi all.. I ride a 2016 F3 Limited. Started with the stock seat. Could go about an hour and had to stop to walk around. Went with the comfort seat from BRP. Much better but not great. Ordered the Airhawk Cruiser R (large) seat cushion. Think this might be the answer after I get the air pressure just right. First ride was a little over 2 hours. No pain!! Inexpensive option to a custom seat. FYI.. I am 6.3 and 190 lbs.

    Yup! The air pressure is the secret to the AirHawk. You sit IN it and not ON it.

    I've been using the Airhawk for many years and my butt loves it. I added 1/2" seat foam from Walmart inside the lycra case under the cushion as an added squishy feel. Many happy miles of bliss.

    Have had the Airhawk for 3 years, can't imagine riding without it. And, as mentioned before, you sit in it, not on ​it.

    Default Airhawk size please

    Lots of good reviews, but no sizes given. Do these overlap the seat, fit within the seat? 2015 rt stock seat. Pictures would be great.

    R Large and Medium Cruiser work best on Spyder.

    And they seem to fit for both the rider and passenger positions equally-well!
    The Missus sits on one of them... I just snuggle down into the sheepskin seat cover...

    But I DO think that they should offer a "Whoopie Cushion" option!

    The Airhawk website lists the "R" large 14"x14.5" and the "R" small 11"x11", there is no "R" medium only Cruiser medium @ 14"x14". Here is the link: https://airhawk.net/product-category/seat-cushions/

    Default Airhawk

    If it wasn't for the AIRHAWK, I would have had to part with my Spyder or pay a lot of money to have the seat resculptured 2 inches higher, I don't think BRP did their homework when it came to seats, wish i could fit my Burgman seat on my Spyder.

    Every aftermarket seat still demands an extra cushion, my butt demands it!

    Still looking for size recommendations for the "R" cushion on a 2015 RT factory seat. They list a small and a large, 11x11 or 14x14. Any photos would be appreciated.

    I have an airhawk 2 cruiser medium. Think it was a version before the R. It is 14.25 x 14.5 x 2 inches. I have a 2016 RT-S with stock seat and it fits fine in either driver or passenger position. it comes with straps to run under the seat but I don't use them. I originally brought it for another bike but the Spyder loves it.

    Hope this helps.

    Cruiser medium here. I got mine before there was an R version. The R large has about the same dimensions.
