Airflow Seat Covers

The Airflow seat cover – the name kind of says it all, but there’s more to this simple pull over cover then what first meets the eye.
Over a 2 week period, we gave it hell too put the product to the ultimate test against riding conditions in our beautiful South Africa.

First impressions:
The first thing we noticed was how low the price for these covers are, considering the costs of other odds and ends that are available in the motorcycle industry. At only R 650 per a unit direct from the importer, regardless of the size of your seat, that’s not actually a bad price.
Add to that includes next day delivery as well! Even the service that you get when ordering your new Airflow is exceptional, with constant follow ups and tracking details throughout the delivery stage.
As for the packaging, it’s nothing too fancy, but then it’s also not the worst thing in town. In other words, it is the typical type of packaging you’d come to expect in the motorcycle industry 🤣

Fitment:
The Airflow seat cover is surprisingly easy too install on any motorcycle you buy one for, as long as you know how too remove your seat.
Simply pull it over the seat you want to cover and reinstall it. Just like that the Airflow seat cover is installed. So at least you won’t need a master motorcycle mechanic PhD to get it done 😉

Looks:
Surprisingly, the Airflow seat cover design, in terms of looks, is very well thought out. This is a product that you can see was developed by bikers for bikers. The simple plain black design will work with any motorcycle graphics or custom paint job that you might have.
Damn we who live the bikerlife are easy to please - https://southafricamotorcyclist.blogspot.com/2020/01/wearing-black-and-skulls-again.html?m=1

First ride:
It honestly takes a slight touch of getting used to the first time you swing your leg over the Airflow. The extra cushioning it provides, combined with the added slippery surfaces of the advanced plastic structure the product is made of, makes for a very interesting first ride.
After the first few hundred meters however, you start to really enjoy the feeling of the slide across the seat you get.

Does it live up to the manufacturers claims?
Well we’ve tested it beyond what Airflow claims it does, and surprisingly to us, it stood up to the challenge on every turn.
So in short on that question, we can give them serious credit on keeping their claims lower then what the product actually does.

Pros:
• Well priced
• Brilliant delivery
• All round brilliant aftermarket accessory
Cons:
• Plastic feel
• Sliding takes a bit of getting used too
• Make sure you get the right size for your motorcycle
