Features: 6 removable plastic hooks

A cargo net is a quick-fix time saver. They help carry newly acquired items like firewood, groceries or — this one’s important — beer back to your campsite. Not many people haul these bulky items with them on long journeys, so it’s expected to pick them up near the final destination of the day. No need to unload everything at camp to make room for last minute consumable items. On your way to camp, you can pickup anything you need for the evening and quickly strap it to the exterior of your luggage.

The WPS Adjustable Cargo Net can hook directly to your top bag, rack, or whatever else is securely fastened to your bike. It’s not complicated; just find something stable for the hooks to grip, cover your load with the cargo net and stuff in all the essential accouterments you can fit. It’s an easy, fast, pain-free way to carry odd-shaped items. Plus, it doesn’t take up much space so you can easily stash it away when you aren’t using it. Made of durable plastic, as opposed to metal, the hooks are less likely to leave nasty scratches on your paint or rust as the weather turns nasty. The net itself is brawny, even stretched out to over twice its size! A steal of a deal, this farkle is a no-brainer addition to your vault of motorcycle paraphernalia.
