There's already a few threads on this exact topic. You may just want to do a search. Only difference I know of is that you have the ABS option, new guage and wiring and 2 new paint choices.

The electrical system is different. Hazard lights have own switch on bars and the trip button is now on the bars as well

Well, the '11s have just the medallion on the tank (like the lo) instead of those gay-looking decals they had on there from, what was it?, '07-'10?

I have an '11 model (Lo). I don't have a point of reference on the switches being different...

The trip is on the handcontrols now.. Headlight is supposed to be brighter (it is brighter than my brother's Dyna headlight...)
