Cafe racer seat.

Hey guys, I’ve been looking into getting a new seat but everything I see on amazon is either super cheap or 200 with no reviews. I was wondering if there’s any sites to find good fitting seats for a xs650 of if anyone here sells custom seats.

If you want to save money make it yourself. A lot of videos on YouTube about bending wood or metal, and doing fiberglass molds. There is the MotoLanna SR500 seat, but most cut the frame. I have this seat but didn’t cut the frame instead made a cover for the hump. There is also Omar’s but it isn’t cheap for his stuff. And then Tuffside makes a good seat which also are expensive. May be time to learn a new trade.

I have a café seat from Hot Wing Glass but I don't know if he is in business still.
There's also https://counterbalancecycles.com/shop?olsPage=t/xs-650

I have the same seat as Jim - but I bought it at the swap meet at the Barber Museum Vintage Days last fall. It is a really nice item. Unfortunately, I don't recall the name of the seller - he just had a little trailer/booth setup at the swap meet.
