Default CBR headlights

Hello all,I’m new to the world of Honda and have a question. I recently purchased a ’07 CBR 1000 and was wondering if all Honda bikes have only one headlight on? I used to own an older Kawasaki where both lights came on. How can I do that on the CBR?

Haha, ooohhh yeah. Yeah, Low beam is one, high is both high and low at the same time.

DO NOT wire in resistors and crap like that to dim the high beam, you'll end up melting something! - You DO NOT need to do anything with wiring!

The high beam and low beam use the exact same bulbs, 12v 55w H7's. The only thing you need to do to keep from blinding people at night is to lower the beam of the high beam headlamp. There should be an adjusting screw on the back of the housing on the upper right corner. That'll be your beam adjustment screw. Just lower the beam. Park in front of a garage or wall and bring the high beam down to the same level as the low beam, that'll correct the problem.

Your high beam will still look a little brighter than the other one (because the light diffuser/reflector is setup differently), but that's the way it's made. Worked out great for me.

It's a animated-show kind of thing. They took the Halo video game, recorded various clips and voice acted to make an online series. Started off as a hobby, now Microsoft pays them BANK to produce some stuff like it for Xbox Live. It's freaking hilarious! (and they're almost up to 100 episodes so far).
