ABSTRACT:
A retractable roof is provided for mounting on a two-wheeled vehicle such as a motorcycle. The roof comprises a flexible waterproof canopy which is removably supported by a tubular metal frame movably secured to the vehicle. The frame includes a stationary base portion and an overhead portion including a front bow, central bow, and rear bow, all of which can be pivoted from an upright position over the seat of the vehicle to a lowered position parallel to the base portion and behind the seat. The central bow includes telescoping elements which allow it to be shortened when in the lowered position.
