If i were to do a custom seat, I'd try to use a layer of memory foam like a temperpedic matress. Also, I'd try to see if I can get the bottom edge of the seat shaved to follow the frame and tank better, and exposing more frame. 2 tone, is that what you had in mind?: Don't like as much...

if you just want a new cover HTMoto has all kinds of colors/skins to make it look like that pic. Unless you're handy with a sewing machine and electric stapler.
HTMoto only makes seat kits for monster '93-'04. I didnt realize the monster seat changed after all these years. What's the difference with '05-'08 model seats? Do you guys think the seat covers would work? Or is there another source for seat covers?

there's really no difference. it's just the raw material - seat shape did not change much if at all.

I think the locking mechanism under the seat did change though.

should be the same for all the 'classic' style seats. the 696/etc might not work. luimoto I think is still making them also.

I second the memory foam...keeps the Cash and Prizes from going numb! Gel is just brutal in the summer!  Just a small 1/2" piece in my seat with the medium tack black vinyl on the riders position with the high tack for the passenger. Works very well. This is the second seat I had done in this way.
