I have one from Kissan and it only modulates when on high beam. Low beam turns it off. Very, very visable

mine only modulates on high beams, which is how the kisan is designed. again, a great little addition which just could make a difference sometime. also, as has been stated already, when riding in a group, you just put your lights on low beam so stop the modulating for your riding buddies.

I just ordered the Comagination unit, Where's a good place to mount the sensor. I was thinking of running it down, and zip tying to the front brake line, or clutch cable.

The directions that came with mine (if'n I recall correctly) said to point it towards the ground ahead of the bike. I tried taping it to the inside of the fairing, pointing down, but it was too dark there and the dang thing turned off the modulator with the slightest shadow.

I finally drilled a small hole thru the inner fairing near the gas gauge and have it poking out there. Sorta looking up (in contrast to the directions) but seems to be working fine.

I had the Kisan on my '05 Heritage and it worked flawlessly. It is now on the '09 EGC.

I ran mine up the clutch cable and wire tied it. It has worked fine for me.
