"Best looking"? Whichever one is least comfortable - Lapera is a good place to start for that. Of course, I have a Bare Bones, so I imagine they make some more conmfortable than that (but it looks good). If I was getting one for actually riding, I'd look at a Corbin Dual Touring, for the ease of using their backrests.

It might sounds a bit silly with all the fancy seats out there but I'm kinda partial to the old school look of the stock Softail Custom seat.
Its very comfortable, some have even called it the Lay-Z-Boy of (factory) bike seats, and best of all the wife likes it too.

I'm OK with a thin seat. I'm running a shaved badlander and it's shaved down to 1 inch.

That softail custom seat does look comfortable and that corbin is nice! I have a barebones solo that I shaved also and I'm good on it for a full day ride and ready for the next. A low profile seat does more.for me than look good it lowers me into the bike.
