ABSTRACT:
A kit which provides a removable top assembly for a vehicle (e.g., all-terrain vehicles) includes a pair of lateral upright supports adapted to being rigidly fixed to a rear portion of the vehicle, forward and rearward generally U-shaped upright support bows adapted to being removably coupled to the lateral supports, and a forwardly extending, generally horizontal support bow adapted to being removably coupled to an upper region of the forward upright support bow. A fabric top component is connected at its forward edge to the horizontal support bow and at its rearward edge to the rearward upright support bow, the forward support bow serving to support the fabric along a region between its forward and rearward edges. When the top assembly is erected, the forward and rearward upright support bows will be inwardly flexed relative to one another so as to exert a tension force upon the fabric top component (i.e., due to the tendency of the upright support bows to separate from one another) to thereby maintain the same in a taunt condition.
