That's a Fuji speed fit seat, if we're talking about the same model of lunkerstick. There's a few for sale on Ebay right now, but as for a steady supply, I don't know, maybe fuji might have some NOS?

Looking for one similar to the one they used before the Fuji. Better yet a new reproduction,I saw some in a catalogue a while back, just can't remember where.
