Tom from http://harleygoodies.com/ here. If you regularly hit the top of the bags with your foot, then I'd say they are worth it. There is nothing special about them, and they have the regular HD markup, but they do serve a purpose. Also, if your old lady rides with you a lot, they keep her boot marks off of the bags.
I rode to Key west from Long Island NY< picked up a set iN FLORIDA cause i noticed the top of my bags getting ROughed up, Haven't looked back, LOVE the look on my silver ROAD GLIDE< Protects the top, and NO worries, Put me down for a YES VOTE.
I like mine alot. Went on a road trip without them and my lids got all scratched up. I even got an big deep scratch from some Jack@&& in Sedona parked next to me. I keep them on all the time now and I treat them with Lemon Pledge when I wipe my scoot down. I bough the H-D ones.
