Default High beams
I ride during the day with high beams and some times with low beams and I'm not sure which way I should do it.

I tried searching in the forums but all I really found was threads on replacing beams.

Thanks.

I always ride in the day time with my highbeams on. Always.
1. It makes you more visable to other vehicles
2. People arent always saying, "hey, one of your lights arent working"

@sUshI

More like does it matter and more so during the night.

Like I said, I ride either way during the day. Was just asking if its illegal and whatnot.

That was a perfectly good question and some solid advice. I do the same as Dr. Fingers. It's good you asked. Anything that may save your skin sometime is good in my book and it's kinda why we're here.
