I've bought 2 other nets like this here on Amazon. The first one was a little too tight. The second one was "elastic", but had poor tension. This one is a nice medium between the two. It's meant to fit a moto helmet, but you could put a lot of different things. I personally carry groceries. You could fit a basketball too. The hooks are both good and bad. It's good because they're plastic, which means, they won't scratch your fairing, but bad because they're not secured too tightly -- when the net is tense you don't have to worry, but when not tense, the hooks can come off, so be careful if you have a thin bike and there's a lot of slack.
