I have used AirHawk (air pad), a couple different Gel Pads and a friends Sheep Skin cover. Finally tried BeadRider about 5 years ago and Hands Down the best for me in warm weather. Have used BeadRider now for about 5-years, probably done at least twelve 3,000 mile trips during that time-frame. Since I started using BeadRider I see many more bikers using them at my Hotel in Sturgis. Benefits include:

Keeps your Rear End cool & dry with air circulation in Hot Weather.
Prevents your Rear End from sticking to the seat as you sweat.
Beads make it very easy to slightly shift your seating position to relieve pressure points.
I think the Beads help improve blood circulation further helping to reduce pressure points.
Beads are cool when you sit on them after bike has been in the sun.
You don't sit in a puddle of water when riding in the rain.
If your seat is damp from previous days rain your Rear End will be dry.

I have the stock F6B seat and unfortunately just removed my Beads or would supply a photo. For the Front Seat I purchased the ceramic 15" X 15" and it fits really nice on the Stock Seat. On mine two or three rows of the beads lay on the upward sloping back support for added ventilation. For seats with a more vertical back support then the 14" X 14" would most likely be better.

For the Rear Seat I actually purchased the 11" X 11" Front Bead Set and installed that backwards. The Stock rear seating position is kind of triangular facing towards the rear of the bike and this made a nice fit & look.

The wood beads work just as well as the ceramic but will fade in color with age. The ceramic beads still look like new after a full riding season.
