Head Lights

RE: Head Lights
I have been keeping my cbr on high beams.
I have had a bunch of people tell me that I had a headlight out when I first got the bike. So I decided to keep both on for two reasons mainly:
1. I didn't feel like always explaining that Honda designed it that way to random people and friends
2. If random people think your headlight is out, so will a cop that does not know much about bikes. I try to stay as far away as possible from cops and having only one headlight on seems to me as drawing more negative attention towards yourself from cops.
I haven't yet had someone flash me with both on, and also with both headlights on, I am not worried about a retarded cop pulling me over for a headlight out and possibly giving me a ticket for something else.
In my opinion, don't give a cop a reason to pull you over, keep both on!!

does having your high beams on all the time have any negative effects on the bike (i.e. burn the battery out quicker, etc)?

Me 2. In MSF class they made a strong case for BOTH ON HIGH as much as possible. Only at night meeting folks do mine go down to low. Then they cannot tell there's 2 so you won't get harrassed by anyone.
I think I will adjust my low beams up & high beams down a bit as well. There really isn't enough light out there IMHO. I wish they were even brighter.
