Default differences between 2010 and 2012 Street Glide

I am going to look at a used 2010 Street Glide and am trying to remember the differences between the 2010 and 2012 model years.

I know the 2010 came with the 96 engine vs the 103 in the 2012. 2012 also has the integrated oil cooler. I don't believe the 2010 came stock with an oil cooler, but I'm not sure.

2012 has 130 rubber on the front and 180 rear, but I can't remember what tires were stock on the 2010.

2012 also has the integrated brake/turn signals in the rear. I think that was a 2011 change, so wouldn't be on the 2010, but again I am not sure.

Would appreciate any confirmation on the above along with any other differences I may be forgetting.

Thanks!

2010 has the single rear light. Same size tires. Does have the NON-SE compensator. Bangs like a mother**** when starting. $200.00 fix. No oil cooler. 96" vs 103". That's the big stuff that I can think of.

2009 was the last year of the center tail light. 2010 has the same lights, size tires, frame, ect that 2011 and 2012 models have. The 2012 have the 103 standard, including the oil cooler, a different stock seat, and a different compensator. 2010 had the 2 into 1 stock, and 2011 and 2012 have the 2-1-2 exhaust. Those are all the differences I'm aware of.

+1 on above. I'll add a few minor changes in 2011. The HD tank emblems on a 2010 are all chromed plastic. In 2011 the tank emblems are black w/chrome on outer edges. Also the rider floorboards are slightly different on the 2011 - less chrome, more rubber. The newer style seat came out in 2011 - the 2010 seats are the typical SG design w/ribs in the vinyl seating surface.

And with the 103" you'll get the Auto Comp Release. built into the heads.

minutae can be found by googling:

"2010 model year technical forum .pdf"

that'll get you the dealer new model introduction docs.

than do the same for 2011, 2012 and you can track changes
