| Headlight wiring question I looked quickly thru the threads but didnt see anything directly related to this. I have a 2001 CBR 600 F4I and the Low beam is almost useless. The high beam works great and I now use it day/night to make sure I am seen. I have noticed that both HIGH/LOW beam lights use the same bulb - H4 (or 9003) I believe. Is it advisable to rewire the headlights so that I am running HIGH beam on both lights? Thanks in advance. | |

| Re: Headlight wiring question Researched it and it is a 55W H7, in fact, had to look at the Honda parts book at the dealer. Same bulb both sides. Only thing I can think of is that the previous owner put a silverstar in the high beam and left the low beam alone. Researching HID now. |

| Re: Headlight wiring question new guy here... I just bout an '01 F4i, and I noticed that only the left headlight turns on when the bike is running, but when I flip the high beam switch on the right bulb turns on high.... meanwhile the left headlight does not get any brighter. Is that how it was wired from the factory? I cant imagine it is.. |

| Re: Headlight wiring question Yep, but each light is aimed differently. Why is it hard? Both bulbs are single filament; it is eiher on or not. |
