Default Anybody Notice Rear Window No Longer Creases?

This is my third season.

1st - Got the dreaded crease a couple of times and became very careful to put top half way down and put roll in before lowering.

2nd - quit putting the roll in and put half way down and smooth crease.

3rd - Just put top down - don't even check it and have had no creasing.

Does this thing possibly cure with age and quit creasing?

It's possible that as it ages, it gets stiffer and is less prone to creasing because it just "springs" back. Or maybe the temps aren't hot enough to cause it to crease when folded?

That's ok. At least we '00 and '01 owners don't have to haul all that extra weight around

I know you were kidding about the extra weight with the glass, but I love it when people talk about weight on cars and bikes ....down to the nat level....and then plop their very overweight bodies into these little cars and onto a sportbike.... Now THATS funny.

Happy with my glass....
