After considering it for weeks I finally bought the Kirby 516 . Took it mostly apart everything seems good cleaned it all up and then threw my legend 2 bag and emptor on it and it seems to work great ! You can see the picture with the bag I was wondering is anyone know is this a replacement bag for it or is it the actual original bag? I plan on trying out that little Odor eliminator thing where you put oil’s or something in for hoping it works as designed . A replacement middle rod on the handle is orders and it already has a four row brush, just need a light. I broke an original light bulb trying to put it in...going to go for LED now when I can find one. I think that Legend 2 bag looks good on it , do ya think the Heritage one is even better? I plan on keeping the original emptor and getting a replacement bag for occasional use( see massive fading)

Looks to have classic III front wheels w/extension spacers, a replaces safety switch, and Dan replaced ( can see the sealing residue on the case but I’m betting it was done a long time ago...it’s not the off white Amoled or whatever , fan.
