Although there is still an ongoing debate about the differences between a motorcycle cargo net and a bungee cord, these two are not similar. When carrying gear or equipment on your motorcycle it is always advisable to use the cargo net. This is because of the numerous benefits offered by the cargo net. The bungee cord is just a single cord that you will be required to tie to different parts of the bike for you to secure your luggage. However, the net secures each and every part of the cargo safely onto the bike.

Bungee cords are usually designed to secure and absorb shock when the motorcycle is on the move. However, when it comes to containing or securing bulky or oddly shaped cargo, the motorcycle cargo net is highly recommended. You do not have to struggle to ensure that the net has gone over each part of the luggage as is the norm with the bungee cord. Once it is fastened onto the motorcycle’s frame you are good to go.

If you were wondering whether to buy a motorcycle cargo net or a bungee cord, you definitely have the right answer by now. The net offers more benefits than the cord and it is easy and safe to use as opposed to the bungee cord.
