Question Saddlebag Storage Stand?

Is anyone using one of these? How is the quality?

HD Saddlebag Storage Stand

I'm thinking this might come in handy for those days I'll be modding. I don't really have any place to set my bags when they have to come off so this might be a good way of keeping them from tipping over and getting all scratched up.

What do you all think?

I use some heavy gauge wire and hang them from a bracket in my shed. They are off the floor and out of the way. Free mod... had the heavy wire left over from a fence I put up.

I just throw S-hooks through the mounting holes and hang 'em from the wall (wire mesh hanger rack) or fence depending on where I'm working on whatever it is...

I made brackets for the wall that I hang the bags on.

Very nice, but not for 100 hard-earned bucks - no way! I have a couple dedicated rubber marts I set mine on, making sure the lids are closed. It really would not be hard to build a rack but for now, I'll stick with my mats!

I have been very pleased with the uniquemetalcreations hard bag guardian stand.
I couldn't access their site tonight , but here's a review.
http://www.cvoharley.com/smf/index.php?topic=17253.0
It works really well for storing/washing/waxing the bags off the bike.
The quality is first rate and it is strong enough to stand on (I tried it myself).
It sure makes a pain in the butt job much easier.
I think it was about $79.00 when I purchased it.

I have rubber stick-on feets on the bottom of my bags.

when I take them off, I don't have to look for a place to set them down, and if at the roadside, any hard, level surface will do.
