Default 2016 Heritage Bags Won't Sag?

Been reading some posts where people claim the new 16 Heritage bags will not sag because of the inserts Harley has added. Anyone know how true that is? I was ready to buy some Papabags inserts but would not need them if this is the case. Any information would be appreciated

I have a 16 Heritage and they appear like they will hold up well with the factory inserts, spend your money on other bike goodies:-).

Hell my '14 bags ain't saggin. Proper care of leather and keeping them out of the elements goes a long way. Weekly conditioning. I don't have $700+ to replace. And I need the room for stuffing for weekend trips. The mother ship came up with denim paint and blacked out bikes for the millennial lazies. I take care of my stuff. There is no substitute for real paint, chrome, and leather. Just my feelings at the moment while having a few beers and staring at her.

I have a '13 and '14 Heritage. No sagging yet-but both bikes are in climate controlled garages 24/7/365 when not being ridden.

You take care of your stuff sir. And I'm sure if I walked by your bike I would stop and look at her and if you were present... I would comment on how good she looks. That's my instant satisfaction with all the hard work I put into my bike. As I'm sure it is with you

Me too.

To the OP; why don't you just wait and see it they sag?
There's no reason to add a bag stiffener if you don't need it.
