I have one of these in the carbon fiber. It does get hot if exosed to direct sun as it sometimes is with a vert. However I usually put the top up when I park and it has not been a problem for me.

I have a metal one and I know what you mean. Sometimes when it's hot out I have to bring a towel or something to throw over it just so I can use it.
