Do you roll up the whole panel or just unzip and roll up the plastic window?

I have a 500 with half windshield and the rear panel ,I trailer it with window unzipped and rolled up, at highway speeds and haven't had any issues ,I would think the same would apply to the 1000,probably depends on if you have a windshield or not.

I had one that I just rolled up when on the highway, on the way back from southern Utah one strap came undone and by the time I noticed it was ripped to pieces. Got a new one, will take it off or fine better straps to wrap around the roll cage to hold it up tight. Would also strap the sides down to roll cage also.

I made a couple of trips to Royal Blue this year.
On the first trip, the velcro tabs held the soft
doors in just fine, but on the second trip, one
kept pulling loose, so I eventully took the doors
off. Once I realized how simple they are to remove
& re-install, I will always remove them. I rolled up
the rear panel on that trip and it seemed to work
just fine. I will probably add some additional straps
per Redmist's suggestion.

I have a 1000-5 with full enclosure. I have to roll up all 5 panels when I tow. I will be adding some straps to hold the windows tightly rolled up.

I agree. The velcro strip on the door is poor Quality. Mine started pulling off a short time after starting to trailer. Am going to sew in better quality Velcro and put in a second strip also.

Duh! it just occcured to me that we
can probably roll the side windows
down & secure them with the straps.

But as easy as it is to take the soft
doors off, I'll probably just continue
to take them off.

Yeah, but where do you put the doors? Can't leave them in the cab or bed. And I'm sure not carrying them in my cab of my truck.

I did as I said I was going to do and have had no problems.
