Default Rain Coat

Has anyone used the Fox Rain Coat sport top? Pro's/Con's comments, looks like it would be a good addition for us. We usually don't get caught in the rain but it happens from time to time.

I am considering this too - they noted that the covers work at legal speed limits...

It has been on my wish list this winter but the Velcro requirement, well it's probably the only limiter. Some posters have said they are not using the Velcro and are satisfied. Anyone who owns one here in that camp?
