I'll bite: what's the deal with the rear window? That can't be just for looks. Defogger? Ventilation? Antenna?

I'd buy one... I've been thinking about modding an MP3 so it has a full roof and some sort of side panels. I know, I know, might as well be in a car at that point!

I'm thinking about my commute- 100 miles a day- and as much as I enjoy riding, when it starts getting cold, wet and dark I'm not terribly inclined to ride. This would give me the good gas mileage I get riding, plus extra protection from the elements.

Nor was I, until I purchased an electric vest. Now, my gear build-out is more or less complete. I actually look forward to riding in unpleasant weather, just so I can enjoy the vest, etc. Further, I want to determine just how extreme the temperature and weather have to be to reach the performance threshold of my riding kit.

That greenhouse looks like it'll be hotter than hell in summer.

If they made it convertable so you could pop it off, it wouldn't be too bad.
