The Australian spec seat is the same as Japan. Low and quite streamlined compared to the US. More like a sports bike seat than the retro bread loaf style.

I have recently replaced the Aussie seat with a 2014 DLX Seat from the US to get some more height.

The new DLX seat is about 1 inch taller and wider in all positions. The profile is also more squared off rather than curved or tapered.

Attached are some photos that try to highlight the differences.
