Is anyone certain when the change was made? I thought I had read that the change was made on the 2011s.

anybody who does this often enough knows that there is no need to remove the headlight assy to re-install the fairing..
Hell, I figured it out after the first time I had mine off..

I also like the people that think they have to remove the windshield before removing the fairing! LOL!

Exactly.
