I'm looking for a fiberglass cafe style seat for my CL450.  What's out there that fits the frame rail width and looks decent.  I really don't want to do any frame chopping.  I'd like to be able to go back to stock if I want to.

Check out the seats at Dime City Cycles and drop them a line to confirm measurements.

I've been looking at DCC.  I guess I'll send them an email and see what they say.  Thanks.

Anyone else have anything?

Thanks, all.  I ended up doing the floral foam/fiberglass route, and made my own.  If you building your own to save money, don't!   Ha!   :-\

What did it end up costing you to do your own seat if you don't mind me asking?

CJ i believe there are a few threads on here that can help with what you looking for . Seen a few guys using skate board decks for a base and they turned out very nice .

Cafe Bike Connection:This ebay store has a lot of stuff and low prices, I am not sure if their seats fit your bike but they supply the dimensions of their products.

I have their "phat tail" seat pan on my bike.
