It is rare that I drive at night, but I did last night. What I noticed was that when on low beam the visibility was good, nice and centered and the beam hit the road at a nice distance in front of the bike. When I went to high beam, however, totally different story. The beam pulled way back towards the bike and spread out very wide to each side of the bike. Visibility was significantly worse, almost useless in fact.
I installed a new bulb not too long ago along with doing the Eastern Beaver headlight mod which powers the bulb right off the battery. I aligned the bulb using the low beam only and did it per specifications (like I said, low beam was great).
Since this is a single bulb set up, I am wondering how the low beam alignment could be so good and the high beam so bad. Any thoughts????
