High or Low

During the day, do you ride with your high beam or low beam headlight?

I figure the more visible the better.

Hmmm, your poll choice insinuates I drive stoned when in fact I ride with my high beam during the day.

Since the Road Glide has dual headlights I usually have the low beams on during the day unless the sun is at my back.

I only turn to low beams if I'm passing someone at night, the rest of the time it's all high beam.

I ride with low beam, but also have my passing lamps on.

Low, because my auxiliary headlights go off when high beams are switched on and I'd rather have 3 lights on front instead of 1.
