I'm thinking of swapping to a big single headlight. The dual ones only work one side at a time on the European models so there's not much point. It's about the only thing I don't like about my bike apart from the poor build quality here and there.

Default Fender

The bolts have a white glue on the threads so first time off is a bitch. It looks great and doesn't really affect anything, maybe forks are less rigid because the fork brace is part of the fender, but I didn't notice a difference in handling.
The negative side is every puddle, every lawn sprinkler wetting the street, sand, pebbles, rain, mud, etc. is directly into your face.
Mine is off by the way.

Steve,
We have the same International edition, Fatbob here in Oz. You can get both lights to work simultaneously, on high beam, by by-passing the power to the r/h light at the low beam switch. This allows the low beam to remain on when High beam is selected.. Still only end up with one light on for low beam though.

These will show you how.
Colin.

This is from a couple months ago on Push Mountain in Arkansas. I have not run a front fender on the fat bob since I have had it. I like the look without it. I'm suppose to get a set of tins from vivid dragon next week and they are encouraging me to use a front fender to save the tank some beating. I'm not sure what I'll do when the tins come in.
