I was hoping to get the pros and cons of actually utilizing the convertable top cover from some of you who have had the S2K for more than just a couple of months. To me, it seems like it might be more trouble than it's worth.

I use it all the time. I much prefer the clean look when it's on. Tight lines. But......
It's a pain in the ass when it's cold outside. Sometimes the "tabs slip out on the back side and it pops up a little in the rear. No danger of it blowing out though if it's snapped in. I've been 100 mph+ and no problem.
I wish it were a little easier, but I do love the look. I think over time it'll "break in" and become softer and easier. Takes 5-8 minutes to snap it on now.
Hope that helps.

 

I use it but I garage my car and pretty much leave the top down 24/7. If I had to put the top up and down alot I can see not using it as much cause it can be a real bugger to put on.

 

I NEVER use it. The new one is still sealed in the factory bag. Pain in the butt to take it on and off everytime you stop somewhere and want to lock up the car. If you are going away for the weekend it takes up too much room and severely limits your luggage space.

 

If the top is down you will usually find it on my car. If it takes you more than two minutes to put on, yours is defective or your doing something wrong.

Keeps the top clean and protected from the sun and road grime. Looks better too.

 

It's getting easier to put on, takes about a minute. I like the way it looks - I don't like the way the top's guts look without it.

I've used it once to try it. It's now permanently put away in the garage. I like the idea of quickly raising or lowering the top whenever necessary. It not too warm here you know, so when going faster or longer stretches the top goes up, and when arriving it's easy to lower the top at the first stoplight for slower cruising.

 

Mine spends most of its time stored flat under my pool table; however, I do use it from time to time when I'm going to have the top down for an extended period (a rarity, given the vagueries of Texas weather).

 

Can't be bothered - too much trouble!!

 

We have a cover? Oh yeah, that's that thing in my garage, can't tell what it is anymore with all that dust on it.
