I'm getting sick of everyone telling me I have a headlight out!!! Besides that little trigger on the left, is there anyway I can get both lights on when I start the bike? Not only would I have better lighting at night, but it'd probably look better too. Thanks.

Just turn the bright light switch on half way.

A soon as I got my new service manual I try to get that one done. I want both at high beam but only one at low beam.
Worst case a schotky diode will have to do just that for me.

look inside left switch housing. find headlite switch, jumper blue and yellow wires together. this will leave the lo beam on.

Check this link to a post I submitted a while ago and just copied into the Knowledge Vault under Electrical - starter lights etc.

Cheers
