Thanks, everyone. I just love these bikes!
A couple differences from our 2007 to the 2010 model. The bolts that hold on the brake rotors are now torx instead of allen key. So, the bag of 'buttons' or plugs that are used for the handlebar risers bolts and rotors is now only a bag of 4. I think torx is the way to go in my opinion as it has more points.
The tank badge appears to be a glue on instead of held on with a security torx bit and rubber gasket.

There is now a boot over the clutch bracket. This was a no brainer to do.

The engine idle creaped up to around 1500 RPM, and it was really messing with my shifts. I had to crank it down to spec already.
Oh yeah, as this is an EFI bike, the fuel has to be drained from the tank before it can be removed. After exploring many options, I bought an outboard fuel line assembly that has a squeeze bulb and hoses. It's a generic kit that doesn't have the fittings to attach to the boat. This has check valves so that prime can be held better while syphoning. I'll need to burn more fuel up before I'll remove the tank.
It isn't recommended to remove the Air Injection system on EFI bikes. Apparently, the air/fuel ratio is calculated based on the AI system feedback. There's some wires that go to the AI pump that reports to the ECU. Soooo... not much to do there.
