It used to be that a high beam only lasted 1/2 as many hours as a low beam
Is that still true with led lights? I notice when my wife rides with her high beams on (during the day) she is much more visible, so I encourage her to ride with high beams on all the time. I've thought about doing it myself since it makes the bike so much more visible. However, looking at the price of a new led headlight for the NC at $991.60 which doesn't appear to have a replaceable bulb, I'm not so sure that is wise if the high beams have a short run life.
What say ye?
and no, I have zero desire to wire in those little spotlights down on the forks on either of the bikes. It will either be factory high beams or low beams.
