Hi
Finally got my bike from Customs today, it has been here for 3 weeks and I ge the call yesterday to go get it, well that is not bad 15weeks from the moon, oops spelling error Scotland.
I have booked it in for its complience cert on Tuesday, I am having a problem getting my full beam light to work the main beam works and the dipped, will this be a problem? Everything else is ok. I have booked it into VTNZ at Manakua City.
Any comments on this would be appreciated.
Cheers
Andy
If someone passes you he is a nutter and you expect to pick him off the blacktop round the next corner, if you pass someone they are a slow and have all the gear and no idea

Should it not only have Dipped and 'high beam'
I never knew a bike to have three different settings

Most bikes do have 3 beams low, mid and high, well I am sure someone will prove me wrong on an indian manufactured bike made in 1999 by kenwood only had 2beams or the likes, but i have had kwakas yams triumph and ducs and the all have 3
Just checked mine, yep 3, push on then mid then another button for high

Hondas have a three postition slide swtich for "OFF' "PARK" and "LOW" beams and then a seperate puch button to switch to "HIGH" and aslo a spring loaded switch in order to temporairaly flash HIGHOriginally Posted by sennandy

Lights hardwired on, then a switch to put them on high... that's it.

shouldn't be a problem, I was in Manukau as well and it took him a week to have my monster sorted"they" don't get many ducatis and I simply translated the german papers, gave him the min. break disc figures and that's it. Duc's come with so many different specs, it is impossible for him to trace every single mod down
have fun

Never seen 3 stage switch. The FXR150 lights are on permanently and have a switch for selecting between low or high beam plus a high beam flasher switch.
90% of the time spent writing this post was spent thinking of something witty to say. It may have been wasted.

Nah, just checked my bike. No headlight 'on-off' switch or 'park' light option, just a switch on the left clipon for high or low beam. Two way switch then.

Three stage is not uncommon - Off-Park (which may be a dimmed low beam)-Full. With a secondary switch for dip and main beam.
Typically found on bikes built for the UK market, which used to enforce parking light requirements. Two of my four have park lights, one doesn't , one has the switch position but it does nothing (never did)

Well must just be Hondas that have the options
Forum whore
BMW has them, one Suzuki does, one doesn't, Yamaha has the switch position but it has never been wired up (and an empty hole in the headlamp reflector for a bulb holder).
It will be a matter of intended market and age, not make. We are too small to justify our own market specification. We get bikes intended, and spec'd, for various markets . Some have or had park light requirements, some do/did not.

I know of an SV1000s with hazard lights!
