RE: Spot lights
I run mine all the time for the same reason as everyone else (I like thinking I can be seen easyer by cages) and I'm gonna make the wireing mod as soon as I get home tonight.Thanks for the info Amused.
RE: Spot lights
Well, I want to ride with the spots on all the time but i was just wondering how it would effect the battery or lights. I just installed Adjure jeweled tri bar spots and head lights yesterday. Anyone else runing these lights?

RE: Spot lights
I run my spots all the time, for two reasons. One for more visibility during the day and two, I have my spots seperate from my headlight and if at nightime my main headlight bulb should blow, my spots would still give me ample light to see where I'm going.

RE: Spot lights
This was from a while back, but I'm getting ready to do this and realized that I had a question which I forgot to ask: On the mod, what happens to the yellow wire out of the headlamp connector?
On the original, it shows it coming from the headlamp connector to the passing lamp switch.
On the modification it only shows it coming out of the passing lamp switch. Does it still run from theheadlamp connector first or do you just remove it from the headlamp connector for the mod?
TIA for any help. I'm still amazed and can't understand how lights come on when I turn a switch, so thought I'd better double check this. Art

RE: Spot lights
Aceart,
The passing lamp hot wire to switch is originally fed from low beam hot wire. On the mod you will remove the passing lamp 12 volt feed from the yellow 12 volt headlight wire, and go to the accessory hot wire to get 12 volts back to the passing lamps. This eliminates the passing lamps from the lowbeam and allows them to be turned off or on at your choice.
