Air hawk is #1 and Butt Buddy #2. Use both, no issues with either. Prefer the airhawk because it's easier to stash in bags.

I use an Airhawk *and* a HD Circulator Pad in tandem. I've found Nirvana - - I can ride all day ...

We bought a sheepskin cover that we just throw on the seat. It's big enough for the whole seat and the wife and I love it. Amazing difference.

I have the older version of the HD Road Zeppelin Seat Pad. Makes any seat rideable.

Yup. This. The air circulator pad. When I got mine, it was $90, and in stock at the Harley dealer. Like you, I needed it for just a little more padding. Works great.

On the Sporty I have an air cushion, similar to the Airhawk. It provides an improved ride of sorts, but I can't justify paying out for a Cobin at present!

Have used an Airhawk for over 20,000 miles really like it. Like everyone has said ride all day long in comfort. However it does slide around some when I move on the seat and it is showing some wear.
Just purchased the Harley inflatable seat pad as a replacement. Pad is shaped different looks like it will work better? Due to weather have not had a chance to ride with it yet.
