Hey all,

i was wondering if anyone knew of a connector/converter that would allow my low beam to stay lit while i had my high beam on so that both lights are on at the same time....any info is appreciated. oh...it's a 2005 XB9SX. thanks for the help.

Eric,
If you put the switch half way between high and low, both lights will stay on. I know Duff does it a lot when he rides and hasn't had any problems with it.

Be sure to come check us out and ride with us once it gets nicer!

How do you guys get it to stay, bump after bump, so both high and low stay on? I'm thinking about Gloop gluing the switch to stay so both high and low beam show up and stay on 24-7. Any better ways to do it?

Mine stays there (in the middle) unless I bump it.

might check the KV ( knowledge vault section)
I wired my low beam to one of the 2 unused fuse positions in the fuse box under the seat. low beam ( HID in my case) is always on when key is in run position, hi beam switch only operates the high beam now. been wired this way for a long time, 12,000 miles so far. no problems. much of the time i run both, have not had any heat damage yet but i live in Alaska, so your mileage may vary.
