Bike looks to to be non U.S. just from the engine cover styles. Seat topside styles may have been different also.
81H Venturer1100 "The Bentley" (on steroids) 97 Yamaha YZ250(age reducer) 92 Honda ST1100 "Twisty"(touring rocket) Age is relative to the number of seconds counted 'airing' out an 85ft. table-top.
Just looks like a standard seat that has had the foam shaved way down. Some do that just to lower the height some for short people.

In any moment of decision the best thing you can do is the right thing, the next best thing is the wrong thing, and the worst thing you can do is nothing.
I'm 6'1" and I'm on my tip toes at a stop light, lol. Stock standard seat.
I am 6' and I can stand up and have an inch or two in-between me and the seat.

The bike in the pic is definitely a euro model as has been stated, maybe they have different seats, who knows. Your best bet would be is to take the seat to a shop that does seats (boat shops usually do this stuff) and bring the pic of that seat and see what they can do. I bet the stock seat cover would work just fine too.

You may be right about that know that I think about it, ha. I'm all torso.
It is a 79 Euro standard, drilled rotors, aftermarket fugly horns and turn signals, mirrors are from louis.de, so are a bunch of other parts (footpeg, engine guards, etc).
Seat is stock, but with cut foam. Looks like home made or a cheap shop did it.
A guy I bought my 1.1 standard from, has one just like in the pic - in his dining room (alltho a bit more original).
If it doesn't have an engine, it's not a sport, it's only a game.
(stole that one from I-dont-know-who)
