Default sportster seats, let's see the pics

So I'm finally looking into getting a two up seat, however I'm REALLY picky about what I like on a sportster. I like the look with a traditional spring seat and some kind of (excuse the slang, I don't know what they are really called) p-pad. But that isn't going to be comfortable for who will be riding with me. I think that cafe seats look nice, but my bike isn't a cafe bike. Basically, I just want to see what y'all have and let me know what the seat is and where ya got it. Looking at seats online doesn't really do much for me because most places don't have pics of the seats actually on the bikes.
p.s. I tried to do searches but this just seems easier to get everything all in one place.

guessing that this isn't what works for you, but it is the third seat on my bike and the only one that works for me and for my +2 also... especially for long rides. this is the only seat that I have ridden on a sporty with decent butt time.

Mine is a LePera Sorrento, a little more narrow and lower than stock, but the passenger section has a lot more padding, and width. Huge difference in comfort.

Leather Rallyrunner from H-D, since October 2005.
Comfortable enough for riding to a bike rally.
Looks cool enough while at the bike rally.
Similar to the Badlander, but passenger width is 8 inch instead of 5.

Stock Nightster seat with passenger pillion and quick detachable sissy bar. My wife is completely fine with it for rides of 2 hours or so. And I can tolerate the look for about that long...
