You know, I was thinking that too. It would give it some shape, huh?

Swingarm bags are really useful and look great on Softails. Glad you are excited about it.
That said, I have to admit, when I first looked at the picture I noticed your bag had lost its structural integrity. You also want to make sure when the bag is loaded, it is no lower than your primary or floorboards (if you have them.)
I actually suggest a new bag. Leatherworks, and Bad and G Customs are just a few makers who build great ones and will customize for you. You can get a really nice one for like 135 bones.
Here's a few I've had on my bike. Right now, I'm running the one in the first pic. It's just really practical to have it square, I find. The other looks a little cooler and I still have it cuz I think I may go back to it one day.

Your new bag needs some Viagra...
JK, these are great for hauling things while maintaining cleaner lines on bike (vs. full saddlebag set).
LaRosa is another great vendor/manufacturer. Just installed their bag on my 03 Sportster and it's great quality.
