I've got my 23' wheel and Bad Dad glass extended front fender on. next quest is extended saddle bags. What are the pro's and con's of each - ABS vs. Glass?

 

I have fiberglass also from bad dad. There's are nice quality. Ive read a lot of folks prefer the Top Shop as far as glass bags go but I've got no source for comparison. I dealt with Bad Dad and thought the customer service was excellent and was really happy with my purchase. One thread on this topic suggested that glass will break down from vibration over time but the example referenced was a corvette which is like comparing all the torque that a Corvette motor produces over time causing spider cracks in the all fiberglass body of the car. Never going to see anything like that on saddlebags and guys are getting years out of their fiberglass saddlebags. Their are arguments for ABS like, they are smoother on the inside which will result in less damage to your items in the bags but i suppose you could always find some liners or have your bags lined. Matter of opinion but just a little info to help make the decision.
