Default baggs are starting to sag

Itrs kind of iritating the bags on my Heritage Classic are already starting to lose ther shape and only after 2000 miles. Anyone using the saggy bag isserts that I found at gotsaggybags.com or at boss bags.com? there you have to send them in and the rivet them in place. Anyway I didnt think they should start loseing there shape this soon they havent even been in the rain yet!

Same here, on my '06. Actually, the sooner you install them the easier it is. I bought the whole kit, but by the time I had all the other pieces installed, I didn't need to do the lids at all.

I put Bag Bones on my 05 shortly after getting it. About $50.00 US.

Installed gotsaggybags last week and they work great. They feel like hard bags with the original look. Only drawback the lid falls short of opening fully since they hit the passenger pillion but a small price to pay for straight bags.

I put GotSaggyBags on the wife's Heritage about 2 years ago and they are all they are advertised to be. Well worth the money.
