My doc recently warned me against too much sun, and I am faced with reluctantly having to plan to sell the Spyder. Haven't decided yet if and when. The Spyder has no top (the one provided flaps around like a chicken with it's head chopped off), and I was thinking about a Speedster. At least the Speedster has a top that can be pulled into place to block out the sun.
My only concern is that of driving the Speedster at moderate freeway speeds with the top up. I rode shotgun only once in Speedster....with the top down, so it was no real test of how the car drove top-up. I need to know from you Speedster owners if the car's top presents any real problems when the top is up. Does the top flap around so much that it is use is limited to driving at lower speeds, or can the car be driven at freeway speeds with no problems?
I don't expect that the top would be particularly effective at keeping the rain out, even if the side curtains were in place; I am mainly interested in any gripes or complaints that you owners have when driving with the top up in good weather. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Barry
