Thanks for the Youtube video.


Without thinking I tried to follow your video to the letter.

The difference with the european bike is that the three pronged bulb is on the left as you sit on the bike and the two pronged bulb is on the right.

Once you work that out I think it is easier than the USA model because you do not need to lead the wire across the bike and then hide it.

I did not cut the green and orange dot wire I just cut a small section of the plastic casing and then soldered the headlight wire to it. First time at soldering but not a problem.

I have seen this mod where people are making whole new harnesses for their bike. Mine is working with one simple wire that is hidden away nicely.

Thanks again for that.

Steve

No problem, glad it worked and you got it figured out! I like the bike alot better with two low beams rather than just one!!!
