It has been cut down to get my short legs closer to the ground. With the high quality foam Sargent uses, it works well fro me. I don't use any additional pads and I find it works great, even when doing 1,000 mile plus days. I had a Corbin on my FJ and did a lot more squirming around on it than I ever have done on the Sargents. I have a picture of the seat on my new site.. http://homepage.mac.com/johnlaurenson/ hawke On 7/31/02 1:56 AM, "Walt Garcen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've heard good thing about the Airhawk but have always been skeptical.
