1. Does anyone "exercise" their convertible top over the winter, or do anything to stop the mechanism from deteriorating due to non-use. I'm planning to use my 2000 S most, if not all, of the winter and I'm concerned about the effects (if any) of not using the top regularly. Anyone had any late winter or spring time problems with their tops after storage or prolonged non-use??
2. What tires are people using/liking/not liking ... I'm still on the original Pirellis (16,000), but I'm going to have to replace the rears at least, sometime. Has anyone had a problem mixing fronts and rears. I ride a bike too (Aprilia Mille)and mixing can have adverse consequences with only two wheels.
