Yes, the generic bags that take the F&G are known for cutting down the suction of a Kirby, and they look strange.
The original correct bag for a Kirby Classic model 1CR would have been the gold cloth bag, with the Sani Scraper pocket in back, with the leather CLASSIC patch in front. These are NLA, but gold colored bags as well as red, blue and black replacments can be had on E-Bay. When sending a Classic in for a Factory Rebuild, the Factory is replacing all models that used the original Sani Emptor(shake out bag) System with an all black fabric bag. If you want the filtration and convenience of a paper bag system, id recommend the Mini Emptor System used on the Heritage 2-Legend 2 machines, with the Silver/Gray Heritage 2 bag and G Series fill tube adaptor inside to take the G Series Hepa Bags. This is what i have on my Classic 1CR, and it does NOT cut down the suction power at all that i can tell. Plus the Silver/Gray bag looks sharp on a Classic machine. ( In MHO anyway) | ||

I'm pretty sure I have a spare original Classic bag w/ the Emptor. If you're interested in it let me know. Alex | ||

The original 1-CR bag was a mustard-ey yellow with a patch on it, just like the Classic Omega. Except it just said "Kirby Classic" on it. VW | ||

Floor-a-matic & 1CR bag...
"...Is this the one I need ..."
Hello Erik, The Kirby 1CR bag in the eBay link you posted, would be an original Genuine for that model of Kirby. The version w/ the 'Logo patch' has not made for decades, even the 'plain' gold Kirby replacement is no longer made. Any you may come across, would be NOS. I sold the last one I had last year, not knowing they were NLA. Let me know if I may be of further assistance. My email is viewable in my profile. I hope this helps you, Erik. Cheers & hagd all, Bill | ||

Brand new Kirby 1CR bag

I also have the Heritage II and ALL its attachments as well including two new bags one the Heritage II and Heritage II Legend. Question What would a Brand new classic bag go for?

Kirby bag I had my Classic 3 converted to the F and G system years ago, and My Kirby never worked right after that. The bags kept exploding inside the outer bag. I got rid of my Kirby after that. Big mistake. Chan | ||
