Just make sure you check the adjustment on them. My first night ride in the desert had my lights signaling overhead air craft, fortunately the moon was out and I could see my way home

 

You got that right buddy! ...... And the FatBob headlights are both on all the time, hi or low.Dam they are so bright they light up 50 yards ahead and my lane plus a lane on either side! I'm not sure oncoming traffic is happy with that,but I am !~! Ride on Bros

 

For the record I got my Bob this past Thursday ... it's awesome ... and both headlights work all the time.

 

thanks to you after following your instructions, now i have both on highbeam and am loving the night rides. Thanks man. Ride safe.

 

No worries mate. That's what the Forum's about. Helping each other when we can.

Take care and enjoy that Fat Bob.

 

G'day twin headlight lovers, i had a question about how to make both headlights
come on at the same time (australian spec bike) so i thought i'd ask the forum, after a quick look on the forum i find someone has already asked that question and someone else has answered it. This is why i love this forum, every time i have had a problem the forum has been able to help.
Thanks Guys much appreciated.

 

The method mentioned in this thread isn't that great. You end if with just one light (dipped) on most of the time still except when on main beam. The limitation of the stock non-US lights of single filament bulbs means the only practical solution is to swap out the headlight shell for the US spec one. Details here: http://www.harley-davidson-hangout.c...t-fat-bob.html

 

i dunno. the light pattern on the us high beams seems to have a big hole in the middle of it that is not present in the low beams (might just be the silverstar ultras i have in there) . i can see where one high and one low might make a better pattern.

but riding out in the boonies on dark nights has got me looking at lightbars again.

 

Hi all

I saw that there is a way to get the Aus spec headlights to have both the lights working when on hi beam, but is there a way to have both lights working for hi and low without changing the light assembly?

If not where is the best place to order the U.S light assembly from in Oz?

Cheers in Advance

 

You can order the U.S. headlight assembly or insert from a dealer. Just need to make sure it's the U.S. one. Then you need a plug wiring assembly and do the mod. Search on the forum and you'll see. I've been running my Aussie Fatbob for a few years after the mod. So much better than having people always tell me one glove is faulty ....

Cheers, Bones
