    3. Price is very high

    So I was thinking of getting a seat cover because in my last 300 mile ride, my arsy was stiff as a brick and it was painful.. I saw the air hawk at wingstuff which has good reviews and costs $169.

    Has anybody used a seat cover, and if so which one as can you tell me your opinion?

    Thanks

    IMHO, a cover isn't going to be a miracle fix,,, They may enable you to go a bit further, but you'll still perched on the same seat in the same general area,,,

    Custom made seat, made just for you that puts you where you want to be is the best answer for comfort. But, if 'purdy' is more important than comfort, or a repeated painful azz is more pleasant than investing in a seat,,, eh, well,,, Probably best to limit yourself to short rides,,,
    (I have an Airhawk from the last bike,,, meh,,, would not buy another as it's only a 'band-aid',,, certainly not a cure)

    Successful people build each other up. They motivate, inspire and push each other. Unsuccessful people just hate, blame and complain.

    It looks good! Does look like it is gel filled. Another nice improvement of the standard seat.

    When I had my Bandit 1250, I had the Spencer seat mod done. The seat still looked exactly like stock, but was much more comfortable.

    Air Hawks

    I have always used an Air Hawk for longer rides. My wife won't get on her Shadow without it.
