Cargo Net

[Austin David]

@UglyFast asked for pics, but maybe interesting for others?

 

I made up a little cargo net for my boot.  There are snaps to fit the aft-facing boot cover, then loops to go inside the cockpit on a few knobs i've got velcroed to the carpet.  

 

The material is 1/16" UV-friendly bungee, plus leather for the snaps.  It's pretty stretchy, enough to stay attached and still pull over anything I can fit under the rollbars.  The outer two snaps on both side have an extra gap to make room for the rollbar.  The 1/16" bungee is light enough that it should hold just fine on the snaps without popping loose, but strong enough to keep my stuff from flying into the road.

 

Intended use:

• loosen the boot cover and roll it up inside the boot
• Pack backbacks / duffels / etc in the boot, under the rollbar
• Stretch the bungee over the stuff, fastening in the back and front

I love it.  Looks good and also super functional.

Very clever! Will have to keep this in mind for any "touring" I do in the future. Will be a necessity if I go camping again and don't want to occupy the whole passenger seat with gear.

Okay I was thinking of taking a 7 camping this weekend. Where we going?  Have some buddies camping at a campground so would be totally do-able in a 7.

I was actually planning to use this for a trip up torward Greenville, and in the occasion that I talked one of my boys into going with me.  For solo trips I definitely have enough space in the passenger seat.

 

Hopefully if we get a good dry weekend I'll be able to get up that way in a few weeks
