I like the airwing myself. Just wish the damn luggage racks weren't priced like they're made from gold.

I loved the look of the stealth rack, but I actually needed to mount a T-bag for a trip. Stealth is not very good for actually using it for anything substantial. Many like the Airwing but I personally don't like the look of it.
I got the one that the back end of it flips upward. It's heavy duty, decent size mounting area but not too big and ugly, can actually use it for something bigger than a small bedroll, and it looks great!

Hell with looks, go for the one that has the highest weight capacity. It's detachable right? If you're not using it take it off it the look isn't the greatest. Function over fashion!!

And another agreement. I'd have that one on my bike if it would have worked without having to change the license plate mount.

I agree - mine hangs on the wall 99% of the time, and it's covered with a cortech bag when it's on the bike.

That's the nice thing with the newer bikes, the luggage rack and sissy bar attach separately. I recently bought a '13 RK Anniversary. I tried the luggage rack with that kind of flips up in back but my tour bag would not fit so I took it back and got the King Luggage rack. It's perfect for my Kuryakyn Ultra Tour bag. Wider and heavier build with 30 lb. weight limit instead of the normal 10 lb. It's not a rack I'll keep on all the time as it's kind of large. but I wanted something. I like the stealth so I bought a knock-off Stealth on eBay for $130. It fit a little tight but looks great. You cannot tell it from the HD Stealth

Personally, I like the looks of the Stealth the best. However, as "JokerJ13" said above, function probably outweighs form in this case (unless you ride with it installed all the time). I have a Mustang Road Companion bag with the big velcro strap that goes around the backrest, however, I still use bungee cords to secure it. I have the H-D solo rack also.
