Gel Seat Pads?

Is anyone using a gel seat pad? I was thinking about a Pro Pad but on the fence about what size to get for my Buddy 50.

Measured my RH seat and from the rear piping to the front piping its 22" and the width at the narrowest part of the seat is 16". Based on that I should be able to use the SuprCruzr Fabric Gel Pro Pad. It would cover the entire seat. Although I am not liking that $117 price tag just to make my bum feel better riding.

Google ''Airhawk seat pads''.
Supposed to be pretty good, cheaper, varied models and sizes.

I have no experience with gel pads but I'm a big fan of Airhawk.

If you've not seen these already - it's the Alaska Leather Buttpad. I have the universal fit size and I love it.

I'm one of the few that doesn't like an Airhawk. I do have a gel Pro Pad and love it. Just be sure not to leave it in the sun. It holds heat and will burn your biscuits!

+1 on AirHawk.

But if you want an even cheaper alternative with 90% of the effectiveness try a bead seat.
