I don't really agree with what blue v twin wrote. Personally I can't stand fiberglass bags. Fiberglass bags always have that resin smell to them, which I hate, and the stress cracks that always seem to appear in the paint on fiberglass is an issue for me as well.
I have had my Hardstreet bags for quite a while now, and I think the ABS they are made from is way better that fiberglass stuff. No stress cracks here, and I don't smell like a body shop!

I really like that resin smell... 
I don't have bags, but it seems like glass bags would dent a lot less...

The RSV bags, looks to big IMHO on the R* (beauty in the eyes thing). Yami hard bags for the R* are to small and don't flow with the lines very well & real pricey. The corbin beetle bags are cool, though they are to expensive. I think the hardbags bags do stick out to far and don't care to much for them. I've considered the strong bags from tsakyu (sp?), but they look too small, was thinking the jumbo strong, but I've never seen one on a R*. Was thinking of adopting HD bags, but not sure if they'd look right either. Guess I'm never happy and why I'm still with the stock silverado bags.  |

I just bought HD police bags. They are at the paint shop right now I used the stock Yami mounts, lowered them 3in drilled new mounting holes in the bags and they fit fine. I will post pics when I get it all back together.  |
