Anybody know of a good padded cushion for a motorcycle seat?  I have a Mustang seat and on long rides it needs a little help  reaching my comfort level.

I put butt buffers on the grocery shopping list and Nancy had no idea what I was talking about. When I explained, the queen of eye-rolls gave me a perfect sample of that talent.  Grin

Air Hawk medium is the answer.

The medium chopped nose is better than the long nose large that may go over the tank (it lifts your junk).

Though I just looked, and they now make a Cruiser Large that still has a chopped nose.



Those polymer pads may still get hot, and slide around on the seat.  The Airhawk cushion cover has a nonslip bottom that stays put.

ph , Tracey! My anatomically lovely friend , man,  you just opened the door for my wise ass to get into All kinds of Trouble -?I swear I never checked out your “ Padding” but would surely welcome the opportunity  “Shut Up GiG!!!”    But, I did check out Flask and Henry’s those guys are Boney Asses!!! Personally I’ve recently resorted to duct tape due to nostril  - spell check - no assatall causes Pants on the  Floor!!! Happens all sort of in opportune situations  Shocked Shocked
Anyhow, I know many are happy with that saddle, but this dude could NOT Abide! The nose of that thing -near tank- like to push my junk high into my rib cage-  Undecided YMMV OK enough ass & Junk Talk so I’ll shut up Jig!!!   cooldude guess I just pissed oft 3 of my fine -ass freinds… tickedoff shut up JIG!!!

After checking things out I ordered the medium Airhawk seat.   When it arrives I will give a report
