Default Correctly folded top?

Well, since the weather has been nice I've been rollin topless occasionally . I'm not sure if this is correctly folded down and wanted to see what you guys thought. I have the beginnings of a tear above the shoulder on the passenger side so I probably need those straps for the top to correctly fold down. Thanks for the advice.

You need a picture aiming down at the folded top... it looks like it's seated correctly, but hard to tell without another shot. The straps wear over time and do not pull the front support bar back causing the top to fold incorrectly. I actually watch mine every time I put it down to make sure it's folding right.

As do I. Reach back with your right hand while operating it with your left hand. Apply a little pressure to that bar with your right hand to make sure it folds back correctly and you should be good!

Alan I think it expires at like 46,000 mi. Thanks for the help guys, sounds like a contortionist act trying to put pressure on the bar while pressing the top button. Haha I'll have to try it

Unless Honda changed their warranties recently, it's a 3 year 36k mile warranty for bumper to bumper.

Something does appear to be off. It should fold a lot smoother than that. Also, I don't remember being able to see my back glass with it all folded down. Hmmm, maybe I should go out in the garage and check.
