Airhawk
Looking to purchase an Airhawk seat for my Spyder. I think I remember reading most people purchase the R version. Please confirm. Also what has anybody purchased for the passenger? Thanks

Airhawk
I use the Airhawk R with my Corbin seat. When I have a passenger the Airhawk R works well also. I have the 2015 RT limited.

I have a gel pad that I use on my spyder. I still have large airhawk that I used on my M109. But it is too long for the spyder when the drivers backrest is in place, and tends to ride on top of the storage compartment.
The airhawks work very well, but just don't put too much air in them. It actually was more uncomfortable with too much air than with not enough.

I use the Airhawk R w/ stock seat on 2014 RTL; very happy.

I have the R on my '08 GS Comfort seat. Now that I have the air pressure set correctly for me, it is very comfortable.
I don't have one for the passenger as I so rarely carry one.

The "R" version claims to give more "support" where it counts. Read the fine print on their ads--if you dare!
Air pressure is very important for it to do the job. You sit "in" it and not "on" it.
Back when it was an "issue" for me, in order to ride comfortably, I also used a sheepskin gel--sometimes instead of, and sometimes with the AirHawk--depending on the pain of the day.
Either way, a very good accessory. I bought the medium cruiser version about a year before the R version came out.

i have an airhawk that I would be willing to sell. It has only been used a couple times. Make me an offer, I also live in Ohio so we may be close enough for you to pick up.

My wife loves hers now that she figured out that too much air pressure negates all its benefits lol

Spyder Seat
I've never heard of an Airhawk seat, but I just purchased a Corbin electrically heated seat, with a backrest and fuel door. This is for the 2012 Can Am Spyder RT-SE5 that we ride. One is able to choose the colors, style, stitching, color of logo, and welt. The BRP comfort seat as owners of a Spyder knows, wasn't available until 2014. We think it will complement the Pure Magnesium color of the Spyder, and it can be transferred to a newer Spyder when the time comes.

I also use an Airhawk R. Works great the few times I have used it.

Airhawk is a seat pad and not a seat.
I put a BRP Comfort seat on my 2009 RS back in 2009.
