I have seen a few of these on some bike pics, but havent been able to find any around my area. I have seen a few ATV cargo nets that seem to fit the bill, they look the same as what I see here anyone use these or say "OMG dont use those!!"? I would like an option for small things so I dont have to bring my back pack around all the time and someone gives me soemthign I want to bring home.

I used one for the longest time to secure my Backpack to my sissy bar. (Cuz I HATE wearing a backpack while I ride) I have even successfully secured a plastic bag of groceries with it :shock:

Anyway, I say go for it. The only advice I have is that you pay attention to where you are putting the hooks. The bungee cords will rub away paint and the plastic or metal hooks will cut into upholstery of you aren't careful.

I have a small one that works great for keeping my jacket and small things secure on the back of my seat. It's much better than bungee cords because it's one piece and when I'm not using it a passenger can set on it with out any probs.

I have an ATV one... it hasn't failed me yet.

Everything tech said holds true.

Yeah I got a free one from the local motorcycle shop for spending $50 one time. It has 6 hooks and isn't very big, but you probably won't be strapping something huge to your bike anyways...

I have a red cargo net stretched out over my rear seat, the red matches the color of my bike, it looks like a Spiderman Bike, Spiderman, Spiderman goes where ever a Spider can

Nine $. I paid ten for mine. I'm almost due for a new one though because I have used mine so much.
It keeps things from flying out of my famous blue crate. :laughing:
