Who has an Airhawk Cushion on a 1050?

Hey guys, I'm going to pick up an Airhawk seat cushion for a couple of long trips this summer. I'm wondering which one fits well on a 1050 ST. Their site recommends the "Large Cruiser Pillion", which is just a rectangular pad. Some of the other pads look more like the shape would fit the seat better than just a big rectangular one. Any thoughts?

I use a Cruiser Medium (14" x 14") on my '07 sprint.
I' ve just completed a 3,000 klm trip over 4 days and can highly recommend Airhawk seats.

Please post pics of the installation of the airhawk, I'm not really understanding if it replaces the stock seat or goes on top of it.



For those who don't know what these seats are here's a link:

Actually, the site is quite explicit- It's a cushion. It straps on the top of the existing seat.

Replace the seat or goes on top? Good question.
And here, I've been thinking that you velcroed it to your riding pants.
