Speaking of the Airhawk, my lady wants one as she claims on a long ride her butt hurts (LOL!). Are they any good? She's 5'11" as I posted earlier and already sits up high on my Mustang Passenger seat...will it make her sit higher?

 

I love the airhawk and until I got the Hammock seat, I used it all the time. She just felt it was lumpy (Princess and the pea) and too soft, squishy. The airhawk is more comfortable to me than the hammock seat, but the hammock works and I rarely ride more than 8 hours in a day with 650-750 miles being a long daily ride for me. Usually, that is my trip home after a week or so of 340 mile average days. See if you can borrow one before you buy one to see if she will like it.
If see likes it, it adds about 1/2" as they are designed to maximize comfort with just barely enough air to lift you off the seat and mold to your behind.

Get a taller wife. Russian chicks are the best, they come in extra tall. Ask for the Harley discount.

 

My wife rides her own, and my daughter rides with me occasionally, and have never heard a complaint.

I was really curious, so I googled images riding 2 up, and looked at 100 pics or so, and it appears that nobody sits that high. When looking forward they are looking over a shoulder. As suggested before, a heritage seems to sit passengers up the highest.

 

my wife "commented" about this after i installed a new Mustang seat, the fix...she bought a Fat Bob, problem solved
