what would happen if I purchased a High beam bulb and put it in for the low beam? would I have two high beams?

Any way to have both light high beam?

What kind of bike? Obviously not a Tuber. XBs & 1125s have separate hi & lo beam lamps which I believe take the same bulbs, right? The difference is in the reflectors which focus each beam for proper light dispersion.

I just got that bulb for my high beam & it is very nice.
I also did his conversion of the low beam to HID.
IT looks a little to blue for me when looking at the bike but when riding it (from a riders perspective) it looks SO much better then a regular bulb.
Go for it.
