From the standpoint of useability/tuneability... bags cant be beat. Ive had both and Ill never use springs again.

I used a piece of 4" pipe cut in half and a flat plate to box the frame in my C notch I also cupped the LCA's which is what gave it a great stance

I have bags in the rear only. And think it is the best. Rides nice and I can haul stuff. My Dad has springs in the rear and can have much of a load.

Go bags at least in the rear.

Mine is static 2.5/4.0. If I could do it over, I'd make the front 3.5 and the rear 5.0. If money ever becomes as common as grandkids, I'd go with bags on the rear, with the 3.5 on the front. As it is, I can haul a load if I need to....I just don't want to.

i've seen more than a few baggers on the pavement with line and or bag failure not one like that with springs// if the bags fail the tow truck guys just drag it up on the rollback on the rocker panels there aint much left when they're done
