Hi Sick,
There are several options. Corbin has one ready to ship to you in a couple days Corbin . Rick Mayer is my favorite RickMayer. Member "trboam" has a Saddlemen seat made for our bikes - available exclusively from Triumph of Reno. It's been while since I posted a photo but here's an attempt:
These saddles are all in the $450-$600 range. If you don't mind vinyl, Rick Mayer will build you one for about $380.
Hope You Get The Best.
Ride safe,
Dennis

The corbin looks good to me, but man, I'm going to have to save up for that puppy.
Anyone currently using this seat?
How's the backrest work?

I have the Corbin seat but not the backrest. It's the best money I've spent so far. It's way more comfortable than stock but does take 500-1000 miles to break in.

Corbin is two thumbs up! I am assuming that Brill means good, it is! They are. On long rides the backrest is a lifesaver. The backrest easily pops off the bottom of the pillion. Easier if you don't add a lock washer and a fender washer to it. 
A word to the wise is not necessary. It is the stupid ones who need the advice.

This is a Triumph touring seat on my Speedmater. My wife thinks its very comfortable. Me too. I am in the middle of rejetting the carbs, so I cannot show the whole bike. If you want a pic showing the whole bike, I should have it together shortly. Just PM me, and I will post again.

Dennis,
Do you have a link to order that seat online? I like it. It looks very comfortable for both the rider and passenger. I checked out Triumph of Reno's web site and was unable to locate it.
