To Andy,

Just out of interest, i have the stacked HID headlights also and was told by a bike shop that it wouldnt get through its MOT cos there is no side light or parking light at the front.

As mines coming upto MOT time this year just wondering if you could make something up like the 749 / 999s have with a small parking light in the top part of the fairing.

Hi Mark,

I got that comment last year at MOT time. The fairings been fitted about 4yrs now and MOT'd at all sorts of garages.

This year I have fixed it! When the side light put on, it brings the main light on like a Volvo.....eeekkk (just don't use it as a parking light, low battery can blow regulator anyway). Worst case was to add ultra-bight led into the light enclosure.

As the high beam light is the same as the main beam it can be used as an alternative if the main beam was to blow a bulb, as recently happened.... Also when you feel a change, use the other ??!!

Ok thanks for that Andy.

So did yours fail its MOT due to not having that side light then?

and if i wired the side light to the main beam so that the main beam came on when switched to side lights would this be ok for a pass on mot.

Mark.
