I got this FZ6 as my first bike 2022, and at that point I thought I'd swap it out for a different bike within a year.

A pair of heated grips, a windshield, a top box, an upgraded seat, and more than 10000 km later I don't see myself getting rid of this anytime soon...

How do you have your saddlebags attached? They look filled to the brim and more sturdy/stable than just a throw over attachment.

They actually are a throw over attachment, attached to each other with two velcro straps and each bag attached with two straps to the bike. I usually fill them with clothes and other lightweight stuff, so they probably look heavier than they are.

When i had saddlebags on mine i had a pair of metal contraptions screwed to either side to prevent the bags from sagging onto the wheel.
