I checked my headlight on my friend's bike and it did not work. So it looks like I need a new sealed beam. $54 from 4into1  :'(


Another thing I noticed last night when I got caught out after dark was that my left running light was out. however it would come on if I used the blinker.

 This is the DSS euro right control. Sorry I didn't get a closer picture. The wiring was a hoot to figure out  but once I pulled the US only jumper out the colors were mostly there.

 Here is the marchal headlight from yamiya with the parking lamp on.

That euro control looks great! " P - H" though, how am I supposed to figure what that means???

Since I have only one running light that's acting up I'm hoping I just have a loose connection so I will hopefully have time to investigate it this week. I ended up going with a genuine honda lamp from 4into1.

 OFF, park, headlight.
