I have the ones from Harley, they are a bit more expensive , but i liked the fact they used a thick metal support bracket like Papa Bags, and also used the glue in top support like Saggy Bags.
I have the Papa Bags system too. I installed them on some pretty sad 2006 bags. They have made a big difference. Once it warms up a bit, I hope to have a little more improvement in the shape. However, I did want the leather bags to still look like leather bags.
I put the leather lids in mine. I recently restudded my bags too, and all I had to do was peal the leather lid insert off then reglue when I was done now they really look like new.
My 09 bags started going pretty quick, so last spring I put the Gotsaggybags in and it made them look like new. Only takes a few minutes to put them in and they are holding up great. They actually got even better over time after I put the system in. Leather bags obviously take more work then hardbags, but for me, it's worth it. I put some treatment on a few times a year and forget about them...
I installed a set of saggy bags on my wife's 2009 Heritage last year and they look factory new. Fairly easy to install, with a little patience, and the results are great. Best investment you can make...
