Likwid Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Important note....Both of your "lights" (meaning bulbs) are the same. The difference is in the reflector. So having both lit at the same time is not going to give you two low beams. It will give you a high beam and a low beam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidgetTodd Posted July 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 yea i know thats why im looking for a fix to it instead of just running the brights cuz that looks stupid too with one way brighter than the other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likwid Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 yea i know thats why im looking for a fix to it instead of just running the brights cuz that looks stupid too with one way brighter than the otherYah, I suspect at MINIMUM you'll have to change the reflector on your hi beam.Best solution, replace the reflector, rewire both lights to be on all the time, then re-set the amps (I think?) on the high beam light so when you turn on the highs it runs more current through the bulb. So you'd need a split bulb like the single headlight stuff....I used terminology I thought is correct, an electrical engineer and/or anyone else with electrical knowledge can correct me... please.

I wonder if you could just wire a small transistor for the 2 that go into the HI beam.all in all.... is this something you're willing to do, cuz it doesn't seem like there is a plug and play kit....edit: haha, I just described this thread it seems http://www.600rr.net/vb/showthread.php?t=63693 ... looks like that's what the guy did Edited July 7, 2009 by Likwid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue03636 Posted July 8, 2009 Report Share Posted July 8, 2009 you would have to put different bulbs in it as the one in them now only have one coil in them. there is no real high and low beam bulb just one has a reflector in it. This would involve a rewire and I am not sure if there are bulbs that would just fit into the headlight without moding it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
