P500 4 point belts needed ?

[waynester]

The area I ride is closely spaced pines with fallen trees and sm/med gullies max 20 ft. but steep. Like most , the more I ride the more I want to learn limits, hmm 2 wd or 4wd? ...can I make that tight turn near top? At some point I will prob learn the hard way , tip or roll over. If/when it Will be at low speed and at the stated 20 feetish max. Ideas on upgraded belts if needed or are the OEM belts adequate ?

Thanks for advice, yes most time ride alone. Do have basics in all my vehicles; glass breaker/seatbelt cutter/fire extinguisher/ First aid kit (extra blood clotters)

thats helps yes.
Im not 100% sure If u have this, but the P5’s have a bar in the back that folks can put the harness on.

Harnesses suck in a P5 unless you get the retractable type and from what I've read they get crud in the mechanism and don't always want to work right. They're too busy for that small cab and restrict your movement to the point it's annoying. You find yourself only using the lap belt so essentially, yes the factory belts are better IMO. Get a pad for them though for that cutting into your neck thing.

agree with trigger, put a pad on seat belt and leave door nets on and your fine. Rolled mine, however it was a slow motion roll, and all was good. racing type harness and the choppy ride and limited movement isn't fun. If the machine could do 60+mph, and not 30mph then maybe.

Thanks to all! I was hoping stay OEM on belts. Most my riding will be 10mph or less through ,over and around trees and gullies. Might hit 30 on neighbors flat, improved crushed gravel rd.

Might add a shoulder pad to OEM seatbelts, it helps.
