My step dad (Black Panther) and I remove the hard cover on his Super Pursuit. Yes its a bit heavy, but two blokes will have no trouble removing it. 1 holds it up while the other undoes the supports. then 1 each side and off she comes. Easy as that!!

My missus and I can remove mine and she's no weightlifter. (And I am just an old man.)
Good luck with the 12.

Careful putting it back on (scratch wise on cab) The hinges are a bit awkward to line up with just 2 people. I used 3 or 4 layers of masking tape behind the hinges to protect the paint when you miss lining up.

i would have thought that the weight over your rear wheels would be a benefit if anything at all?
plus having the cover on, air would flow better over the car offsetting the weight disadvantage??  :

From memory it's around 40kgs. Re: airflow, removing the tailgate (or leaving open) is a must with hardcover off.
