Anyone know, off hand, what size Airhawk best fits the 1300, please?

Cheers

I can't find my receipt, I got the 14 inch Medium Cruiser.  I think I paid around $150.

They're here for $140 post paid.

Hey Whizz.
I have the medium cruiser size. Check out the new model which has a cut-out at the front to cater for the man bits. I think that one will be more suitable than the medium cruiser. I find the medium cruiser one a tad long as it either sits up on the tank a little or if you move it towards the rear of the seat, tends to push your bum forward in the saddle because of the shape of the back of the seat.
I still find it's a big improvement over the OEM seat.

Thanks guys, there are so many different types and shapes that I wasn't sure which was the best one to get.   

Cheers

We are looking at an AirHawk for the pillion seat of our new ST1300.

This site  http://www.aussiebiker.com.au/catalog.php?category=01-AIRHAWK%20SEATING%20SYSTEM says large (14" x 11") is the right size.

This site  http://www.therohostore.com/AIRHAWK-Motorcycle-Seat-Cushion-Fit-Chart.aspx  says small (11" x 9") is the right size.

Does anyone have any advice as to which is the best size?

The small one comes in polyurethane as well as neoprene, with the polyurethane cheaper.  Does anyone know if there is a downside to the polyurethane?

(Sorry if this has been addressed in the forum previously.  I'm new here and finding my way around!) 

Many thanks,

Marty

HiChaps,
My front air hawke seat i purchased,  the front retaing strap was by far too short to go around the side lugs of the seat where it locks in and Ihad to go to the bootmaker to have them extended with pieces sewn on to make it long enough.  Now works OK......BUT it took me a long time to have the correct pressure in it, too much and you just move around and loose feeling, has to be only just inflated to give the right riding feel, in fact it is nearly flat but works OK.

The medium cruiser fits nicely. I use this one up front so I just went out to the garage and threw it on the pillion seat. However I didn't use the straps. Just sat it on top.
Cheers.

I use the medium Airhawk seat, but use shoe laces on the front loops to hold it on as it wants to slip backwoods
