I removed mine from my xp right away. I put pro armor doors on my Rzr. But I don't think those nets are going to do anything for safety. Plus they are just a dang tripping hazard for me.

 

Doors On , Nets Off

 

My nets came off on day 1

 

Never made it home with nets

 

Unless you have small children, I see no harm in taking them off. I took mine off first thing.
Stickers were next...

 

Took mine off first day. Too much tripping over them

 

Nets off the day it came home.

 

Larry, if you ride tight brushy trails they can keep brush from intruding and sticking or scratching you. They can also keep things from bouncing out on rocky spots (think camera, thermos, etc. They provide a bit of an armrest. They cost a lot less than doors and let the breeze blow thru, sometimes allowing the dust in, sometimes allowing it to be blown out. I still have mine, though I don't always use them; just leave the front unclipped and hanging down by the seat tucked inside the rail.

 

Denver, you've obviously thought this through. Thanks for sharing.

 

I rolled mine up and ziptied them down on the floor. They are out of the way. ATV's don't have nets, why should the rzr.

I removed the drivers side net because my elbow kept catching on it. I left the passenger side on! Doors will be a future luxury but not for a while.

 

Rockitman, for me, part of the RZR experience is the open air. I usually ride with the top off. Lottsa folks seem high on adding doors, which leaves me wondering:

What do doors add to the riding experience?

 

Just make sure to keep hands in even on a slow rollover. Or you'll end up like me with a plate and a wife that thinks the rzr is too dangerous now lol

 

I use my nets. The keep my knee from sticking out too far and catching it on branches/trees lol

I'm a big guy too at 6'6" so I new all the room I can get lol

 

Doors add a level of comfort that the nets do not have... I have no illusions that my doors are going to help in a collision but a while back a guy posted a pic on another thread that had a picture of a hole in the passenger seat from a branch sticking out from the edge of the trail... He said he was just cruising along and didn't even notice it! Just think if it was a passenger instead of an empty seat... That's what the doors do for me. Pro armor makes doors with nets instead of hard panels if the open feeling is needed.

 

Anyone that wants to get rid of their nets please pm me

 

I put a net on to keep my lab in the car. I put a harness on her now and put the net on.

 

I took my nets and took off the attachment point on the lower part up by the foot well. Then I attached the nets using some zip ties to the lower part of the side restraint bar. I folded back the part of the net that you have to step over and folded it back attaching it out of the way to the lower part of the net by the seat. By doing this I do not have to step over the net all the time to get in. I still hook up the net on the upper part clip when I ride but do not have to fight stepping over the net to get in and out.

 

This actually sounds like an excellent idea, will look at it tonight! Thanks Soapy!!

 

We used our nets for the first 2 years of riding and got tired of tripping over them. I took them off and the wife didn't feel secure without them. I put on UTVTech doors and now everything is secure feeling. Nice thing about these doors is they can be removed as when doing a cleanup project where you are always in and out of the RZR and don't want to hassle with them. My doors are fairly low cut so I can see over then easily when crawling over rocks and such. The doors seem to keep dust out of the cab, too, especially without the 1/2 windshield I don't use anymore.

Nets came off after the first few rides. We ride the mountain trails and we haven't had any problems. Were also slow pokers, welcome to the picture bug,elk watching and just plain taking life a little bit slower club! RZR will get you to some amazing places and some of the best memories of your summer!

 

it's a natural instinct to put your hand out to break a fall , thats why the rzr's have nets . yamaha got sued because people kept getting limbs broken , thus ,free doors for rhino owners . if youjust putt around i doubt it will be an issue , be safe !

 

This is the biggest reason for nets. If you can restrain yourself from sticking your arms or legs out in a rollover the nets really don't serve much purpose. Most people can't though. I'm not saying it's a bad idea to remove them but you have to be aware of both your abilities as well as your passengers. An accident can happen in a split second and 99.9% of rollovers are not planned. They usually happen when you least expext it. Doors are a safe alternative that would alleviate your tripping problem but add plenty of extra safety. Be safe and have fun!

 

I recently took my nets off and put the Bear Claw doors from UTV Giant on. The nets were a pain in the butt. I used them mostly for an armrest. Hopefully the doors will do a better job of keeping the mud/water from splashing up my left thigh and hip. If I hadn't bought doors I would have left the nets on.

 

Yesterday I had my Rzr up on two wheels while going around a left hand turn at about 50mph. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed that my wife was about to put her arm down (to break the fall) but she couldn't because the net kept her from doing so. It's just the natural instinct.

 

Well, looks like the old adage applies: "It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it." I'll probably never tip over my RZ, but just in case....

I'll keep the nets mounted, I guess. Less of a closed-in feeling than adding doors, and cheaper, too.

 

Please use the nets ,or get some doors ,they may save your life ,or the life of a loved one !!!

 

I have kept my nets on. I have seen what happens if you get thrown out, not that they completely stop this. Just keep them to be safe.

 

Made these nets after I stuck my hand out and got a plate in my arm
