Mine is flush as well.
Take a look at the tabs/slots on your inner fairing. I had a painted inner installed by the dealer before I took delivery on my 16. The genius that installed it didn't get the tabs for the inner fairing inside the slots they go in. Everything went together but it wasn't quite right. I called them about the squeaks and rattles and thankfully my service manual came in a day later. I took the outer off to install audio stuff and found the inner tabs/slots were not correct, the tabs were sitting in front or forward of the slots they are supposed to be in. It caused a bunch of other misalignment but of course the highly skilled tech just gronked everything back together. If I wouldn't have found it the fairing would have ate itself within a few hundred miles.
You don't have to pull the outer to see the tabs/slots, just look up underneath the bike and you will be able to see if they are properly aligned. If not you will have to pull everything to realign, but it's pretty easy. Bike is in the shop for engine rebuild right now or I would snap a pic for you.
