I haven't seen that particular product but I do have a steel canopy and I like it. Don't know where mine came from but it almost seems like it was designed as part of the ROPS. There isn't a factory option in my parts manual though. ....

Grinder, while this particular product seems to be made from ABS, instead of steel or fiberglass as most to date have been, I can tell you, sunshade canopies and trees do NOT mix well.

In fact almost without exception when trees and canopies tangle, the trees win.

If you decide to go with such a product be sure to put some form of barrier around it, or stay way back from branches.

Best of luck. ....

Yes, I've had a few tangles with trees. The heavy-gauge steel won those tangles but then I wasn't going very fast either. Another possible benefit of a canopy around here is that the may trap a bit of diesel exhaust and help deter black flies. Must be getting towards spring if I'm starting to think about the dang things. ....
