You sure know how to treat your girlfriend. Nothing says "I love you" better than a ride on a bare fender. What do you do if you want her to come along for a ride and she doesn't want to go? Do you tie a rope around her ankles and drag her?

The problem with the low beam is most likely a nut loose on the handlebars.

Did you check your headlight fluid?

It's probably low or in need for a change.

Better call your dealer and ask them if they have any in stock!

Try this test:
Boink her in the pooper with the lights on. See what happens. If the lights go out, there may be an ***/headlight connection.

If the lights stay on, your headlight is still broken, but who cares....

Well, it has to go out at some point, if it's broken. What did you expect? That you would get a 24h notice? That your bulb sends you a postcard, or give you a call, or something?
