Fairing height comparison
So my buddy has a 2016 Road Glide, and I have a 2018 Road Glide Special. Every time we park next to each other, my front end is noticeably taller than his. Neither of us has custom suspension. Can anyone explain this? Am I crazy? It's not a big deal, but it is noticeable. We haven't got out the tape measure to see just how much higher yet. Just curious!

-Front suspension uses Showa Dual Bending Valve (SDBV) technology and gives you 98 mm of travel; bigger pistons improve dampening performance over the range of suspension travel.
