Default Windshield bag

I have a Saddleman windshield bag on my Ultra. I like the bag but the backing is wrinkling away from the inside of the shield. It has three compartments which is handy. what mfg makes a reinforced bag that does not wrinkle away from the inside of the shield ? What bag/bags mfg do you recommend ? TY

I've had the HD one for about 4 years now and it still follows the curve of the windshield perfectly. The only thing I don't like is how it gets dirty between the windshield and bags. I have to take it off every so often to clean it.

my saddleman bag has ripples in it too. kind of a PITA.

bought a second triple bag windshield thingie for my other bagger off Amazon. it was cheaper. the triple bags are much cheaper, with velcro closures instead of saddlemans twisting *****.

BUT the backing is still tight against windshield with no ripples.

the backing is superior, but the rest of the bags is of less quality.

I had a T-Bags for a while and it was great, kept it's shape. I picked up an H-D one too with the magnetic flaps and removable left side bag. Also kept it's shape, but the pockets were smaller and the center pocket couldn't hold my phone which was important to me so back to the T-Bags.

I have the HD 3 pouch windshield bag that lines up perfectly to my stock windshield. Looks as good as the day I installed it almost 4 years ago.

I use the Hopnell windshield bags. I installed them about 6 years ago. a few years ago I noticed the left and right ends were starting to come away from the inside of the windshield so I just put a bead of black RTV type silicone along those edges and it has stayed solid against the windshield.

The concho style is pictured but plain bags are available. I got the plain and then added Harley conchos to my bags.
