John at Clearview Windshields said the 2010's fairing is mounted 1inch higher than previous years.

I too like the dual pipes and hoping to change that in the future, don't want to void the warranty just yet.

I tried a Clearview small on mine and I wasn't crazy about it. I believe it's 11 1/2 inches with recurve. I'm 5'10". It was not nice to my sunglasses even at 60 mph. Maybe the +1 would be better, but I'm going to try a Cee Bailey's Euro first.

I talked to John at Clearview, he recommended I get +2, I am 6'5", I hope he gets it right for me, he said the 2010's is mounted a inch higher and the +2 will be like a +3 on the older models. Will know at the end of the week when it comes in.

Love the color on the new Roadie. Just don't care for the 2 into 1 exhausts. Looks out of balance to me. But thats JMHO.

Hey Carl, I can see the difference. Look at the pic with my buddy's bike in front on mine. Notice how much farther up on the tank his fairing sets and the angle. It is quite noticable after you stare at the pic for a while. Next time we get together I'll park them side by side and trake a pic, if I can get him to stop long enough...lol, Those shots were actually taken last night at dusk, the red changes color in different light and this was in the flourescent lighting our a buds BP station with no flash on the camera!
