JC Whitney used to sell the seat kit with cover, foam attached, the whole thing for a double seat for the 750B models (I still have it on mine). You can probably find one online. It's a lot easier to buy the whole thing with foam installed designed to drop onto the existing pan. I can't post a picture of mine because my camera is out of town.

My butt used to slide around too much on the flat seat. The double seat is way better because your butt locks right into it.
