Default Anyone know what seat this is?

Was browsing youtube and saw this FXDB with one of the coolest bobber style spring seats I have ever seen:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwhNU...e=channel_page

Anyone know what seat that is and what mounting system he may have used ? Just looks like the springs sit alot higher than most I have seen (probably just the spring size though), but more importantly is the angular shape of the seat which I am really digging big time..

Any idea what brand it may be?

Think I've seen a lot of German guys doing that conversion on their bikes in a German Streetbob forum..WARRS of London put that type of seat on a vintage SB rebuild..personally cant see the point of a sprung seat on a bike with suspension...bit like wearing braces and belt at the same time.

Heres a couple of pics from WARRS London and a link. http://www.warrs.com/
