I just sat on one (2011 Street Glide) but never went for a ride.
As stated above the seat is narrower in front, passenger area has some padding now, it seems to have more padding for the driver too.

Not sure if it looks better though, but I may get use to it.

I purchased a 2011 Street Glide last week. While the seat is more comfortable than the 2010 version I found that affter about 150 miles I started getting monkey butt.

Once again I find the seat on my 97 FLSTS to be more comfy. Anyway..I just installed a new Road Zeppelin seat on the 2011. Problem solved! Put down just over 400 miles yesterday and I am very happy with the new seat. It was a bit pricey but worth it.

My riding buddy has a 09 SG. He noticed the new 2011 seat on the SG's and talked to the parts guy and he ordered one. They cost $179.95, which is not bad. Should be here next week.

I'm interested in buying a 2011 take off so if you are considering selling it let me know.

Thanks for letting me know. My dealer gets $176 for a new one but I'm reluctant buy new if it's not going to work out. Especially after hearing it didn't work for you. Enjoy that new Glide, I sure love my '10 except for the damn seat.
