are you talkin the tail light too or just up front...either way i am sure you can rewire the tail the same way as the front.....i recently rewired my third eye to my high beam switch due to the blue led giving me greif on base so i wired it into the high beam switch so i can turn it off and on....you would be able to run the low in with it as well and you might have to look at the wiring diagram but there should be a pos lead to your tail light somewhere near by that you can re route to the high beam switch as well...hope that helps

I'd rather have no suggestions than bad ones ...

Now mine is an 04 but can't see Honda changing up the wiring harness too drastically so my best guess is that it can be done but it'll be a pain in the butt. I would wire in the switch just after the fuse box and have the switch fused also. It's not possible to kill the instrument panel and keep the engine running ... at least not on the 04.

If you just want to be able to turn off the headlight, they sell kits for it. I have one on my 99 900RR and it works great. I have even wired a 95 900RR start/stop switch to the kit to turn it on and off. Check Parts Unlimited I think they are the ones I got the kit for. Can't remember if they only do kits for the H4 type bulbs though. Have to look into it.

Laters.
