So after extensive searching, I think I have found something that is along the lines of what I am looking for.

Anyone who knows ANYTHING about this seat, please contribute. I found it on ducati monster club italy's site. Thanks.
Looks custom, but very hard to see in that pic.
Possibly all fiberglass?
not sure why flickr downsized it...looks to be all carbon.
Fixed the size. I need one of these on my bike in a bad way. someone help!!!
It's definitely CF custom. Hopefully someone will know who paid big $ for it. [thumbsup]
I remember that piece from the OTB a long time ago. If I remember correctly it was stupid expensive, and very few were made.
But, I forgot who made it... ???
I also seen it on the Italian club page back then.
Do you have a link to where you found it...maybe I can dig up the name again from there.
sorry if this is a total thread jack, i love that seat BTW, go for it if you can
i sa this buell for sale, the seat reminds me of that one, anyways, this seat is rad on both bikes, the cafe style is killer. Totally makes this Buell look decent. anyways, sorry for the total jack. It's the beers fault [drink]

That is bad ass. Not to much of a fan of the carbon intakes on the frame (I understand the vertical cylinder cooling intake, but the more forward 'ram air' intake, or whatever it is ain't my cup of tea).
In other news, there is no need to rain on this thread's parade with a picture of a buell.
all you need is a cooler looking tank. and it would be pretty cool "sport bike"
Apparently it is (was?) made by Carbon Dream. There's a guy selling one on ebay here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ducati-Monster-M750-Carbon-Dream-Solo-Seat_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem414d7c9ab6QQitemZ280472885942QQptZMotorcyclesQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Ducati-Monster-M750-Carbon-Dream-Solo-Seat_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem414d7c9ab6QQitemZ280472885942QQptZMotorcyclesQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories)
Good luck!
Would that ebay seat fit a '07 S4R testa? I think it looks pretty sweet, but not sure if it would fit my bike.?.
I had thought about bidding for myself too but don't know if it would be compatible with my bike either. Decided that I'd pass anyway as I already had an alternate idea.
Does it mean I'm getting old when the first thing I thought was "Wow, that looks really uncomfortable"? [laugh]
It is pretty sweet looking though!
Wow...I was outbid by $5 with 6 seconds left on that make the beast with two backsing ebay auction...make the beast with two backsed up. If it's anyone on here, let me know, I'd be willing to buy it off of you or work with that piece with you. Thanks.
Rant over btw.
I totally forgot to set up my auction sniper for this seat. My bid WOULD HAVE BEEN was 6 bills and some funny change, and I'm pissed I didn't win it. Planned to get with hackers and make them!
What is this auction sniper that screwed me out of this? Please elaborate.
So still no word on the winner of this auction? I was actually going to sell the original, just wanted an idea of how to make my own, I'm not going for carbon on my bike. Please let me know if anyone has word on this piece. Thanks.
This thread is about to take another direction. Those who were interested in the original product let me know. I will have some great news for you by next week and want to gauge the interest.
