I was just curious to find out how many people ride with the high beam on. I usually keep them on during the daylight, but I used to ride with them on all the time when I had my f2. What about y'all?

 

The only time I use my high beam is at night. No real need to use high beam for any other time. On comming traffic can see you fine either way. The only real difference I can see would be if you kill the motor while chit-chatting with some friends and you dont turn your key off you will drain your battery faster. Might not get'er going again. LOL!

 

My high beams are on all day during daylight hours, then at night I switch to lowbeam. I try and make myself as visible as possible to at least try and keep people from seeing right through me. I don't want to use the high beams at nights though... with my HID's the high beams are friggin blinding like you wouldn't believe, so at night I don't want to blind people around me, lol

 

That is exactly why I use my brights, I have enough of a hard time getting people to see me when it counts. I think if I were to get HID installed I might be noticed more. Have you noticed a difference since you installed HID's from halogen or have you had them the whole time?

 

For me it depends. I'll run during the day with the brights if I think of it and at night if no cars are coming and no one is infront of me.

All the time. I just think it looks alot better with both instead of one. Plus at night i like to see more since im a newer rider. Ive only had one person actually flash their lights at me for it. And for them i turned the brights off. Other than that always on.

 

all the time mang...as far as being more visible to cars...it's debatable...
they may see it, but it may not register as a vehicle since people are expecting to see 2 lights, about 4 feet apart...which their lame brain registers it as another car...but for headlights so close together, at times it doesn't even register.

 

I use mine during daylight for now. after i get my HIDs (which i'm still looking around for...if anyone knows of any deals...drop me a pm or something), i will aim my high beam down a bit and my low up a little. not for sure if thats how i'm going to do it exactly...but for now thats what i think i'm going to do.

 

only when it dark ahead and i cant see and no cars are coming in the opposite direction. dont want to blind them.

 

Thats why I like my 929. 3 bulbs. Low beam = center bulb on only. Brights = all three on.
