Yes, the ZTL2 caliper on the 2010 models has shiny lettering on it, so yes technically the 2010's are shinier.

Is this like asking, "I'll bet my 1125 is faster than your 1125."

Sounds like someone trying to start some trouble here.....

I ordered my 09 with the extra shiny finish. I now wish I would'nt have. It's ridiculous.

This really started from that picture of the red one on the showroom floor in that other thread. Damn that thing is shinny. Mines ain't that shinny. But since there both red a guess they go the same speed.

Armoralling the tires should make it faster... Sideways that is.

We still are about a weekend from riding here in Chicago. Next weekend could happen though. Still too much salt and patches of stuff on the road.

Hey Guard rail, I am in the area. A little north around Reading.
I use the I. D. 10 T. polish on mine. It's almost so shiny I can't look at it.

Hog, they are still saying partly cloudy and 35 tomorrow. If so, I'm riding...as long as it doesn't intrude too much on watching my Vikes anyway! LOL

Nice thing about McHenry, I'm a hop/skip/jump from being out of town and the roads have been pretty clear up here as long as you don't go in the hill/tree-filled areas.

Skratch, you are REAL close to some great riding up there. I need to get up into Wisconsin this year and do the Kettle Moraine drive. Did it a couple years ago and really want to get back. It's a full day and well worth every minute of it.

Rob at McHenry HD said he should get a bunch of the new Buell owners together for a Kettle Moraine ride this summer. I've gone thru there quite a few times on the HD.

But yes, thats one advantage to living way up here in the sticks. Great roads are literally minutes away. I can be at Kettle Moraine in about an hour. Usually stop in Eagle at Knuckleheads for some food and ride on.

That doesn't stop me though. Just have to stay out of the middle of the lane and the edges. Can't wait for spring.
