Has anyone used an enclosed trailer for their P500? If so what size is good? I’m worried about the ramp door opening not sure if it will fit..

Measure the machine.... then measure and get one with a tall enough door.
Would you mind explaining that in more detail for us measurement confused people?

Unless he already has one... then measure the machine. Measure the door and either put it in or not.

Get an 8 1/2 wide Extra tall by 16 foot long dual axle. Easy to get in and out of the machine and pulls straight as an arrow down the highway . Keep in mind the height if your going to be doing suspension and bigger tires.

I have a 17 foot V-nose with extra 6" height by 8.5' wide.
It will easily fit a P1k for height.

If I where doing it again I would not get the 8.5' wide.
I got the width to fit 2 ATVs side by side, the trailer will haul 4 mid size ATVs. (and I have hauled the family across the country several times to ride).
But with just a SxS the width sucks the gas, the parachute effect behind the truck is pretty bad.
I don't regret the trips with the kids but I feel like I'm still paying for them at the pump.

P1k (to be clear, not my p1k, I have a P500):

Have a 8x18, 7 ft tall Spartan so I have plenty of room to walk around to strap the P500 and atv down. It is overkill but went big hoping for a SxS upgrade down the road. Like the rear floor duck tail option, (angled down last two feet for more door height). If doing it again, extra 6 inch height would have worked ok vs the 12. The standard sized trailers on the lot were too tight on door spring height with my 27s tires and the OEM roof. I do like trailers I’ve seen with a V front and down angle at the roof front to reduce the parachute effect.
