Default Roadglide vs Streetglide seats

I looked up part numbers between a 2010 StreetGlide & a 2011 RoadGlide & they have slightly different part numbers but am wondering if they're the same seat, or if there is a slight difference. #52320-09 is the 2010 StreetGlide seat number. #52320-11 is that of the 2011 RoadGlide.
Does anyone know if there is a difference in appearance?

Thanks

2010 Road Glide Custom and Street Glide seats are the same. They use the Street Glide seat stitch pattern.
2011 Road Glide Custom and Street Glide seats are the same. They use the Comfort stitch pattern.

2010 seats and 2011 seats are NOT the same. In addition to the pattern they use different bases.

2010 seats suck.
2011 seats are pretty good.

I hated my 2010 seat but I like the 2011 seat I bought to replace the 2010.

...the 09-10 seat has a wider nose, less passenger padding.

the 11+ seat has narrowed nose which some riders need to hit the ground- more pass padding which is less sleek to look at, but keeps a passenger from whining.

i have the 09 seat, it is fine for 4 hours, painful at 6.

but the little bumper keeps me from sliding around which i like alot.

have not tried the 11+ seat because of the thicker rear section
