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...

My bags looked new for 3yrs and only then did the lids start to sag a LITTLE..

Poor care and lack of taking care of them makes them sag....

on the 4th yr I installed PaPa bag inserts and they now stand up like new bags again.

See my pic below of last Yr pic, thats after 5ys and on the second Yr of the inserts.

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...
