I can't recall for sure, are you saying the F4i's have one headlight on with lowbeam and both on with highbeam? Whats wrong with that? Also I see you are in the PacNW, if that means WA I know there it is legal to ride with your high beam on during hours of daylight, so who cares if a few people flash you, at least they see you.

Bagged,
If you're talking about using your high beams during the day time and they are flashing you, then they see you!!!

point the high beam down a little. have someone stand across the street on there knees. the top screw moves it up & down. move it down until it look the same as the outher, but you wont have a hi-beam up ahead. but it looks better.

F*ck 'em leave the brights on. They are not that bright in daylight and who cares what people in SUVs and trucks (most people in the Pac NW) think since they blind every car on the road at night. Trust me, you're not going to blind anyone in the middle of the freakin day. Unfortunately, if the cagers could drive in the first place we wouldn't have to do this...

Yup, I say screw them. I ride with high beam all the time. Better that way than being run over.
