I would go with talking to a local auto upolstery shop. I ride a 1996 750 every day and am looking at replacing the seat because the stock one tends to push you forward. Which is alright for my 1/2 hour commute but gets old on longer rides. Also, even on eBay with shipping you will pay more than having a "custom" seat done at a good auto upolstery shop. I'm looking at a completely customer seat made to fit me with more padding in the right places for about $100 - way less than anyone else. Just make sure they have done motorcycle seats before.
Ride safe - leave the iPod at home.
