Yep, if the phase A circuit is never switched on and you are running your headlamp direct, you will drain your battery and fry your alternator.

Returning Visitors
If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.
If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

In my Country (Argentina and Brazil too)the Law says that it?s only necessary to ride with lights on when it?s getting dark ,or when you ride on the road during daylight.
Apart from that, my "baby Kat" came from Australia and the right control has 3 positions...
#1- Ligths off (only: turns lights, cluster, oil, and neutral light works)
#2- Park light or side light (it?s a 8 Amp yellow bulb which is under the 55/60Amp bulb.This also works with rear lights and gauges lights.)
#3- All the lights (park light doesn?t work in this position)
In my Country it?s also legal to ride in position #2 on ligthtened streets.
In some ocassions I had problems with car drivers, due to my lights being reflected into the car mirrors .
I do prefer this feature as it is a good way to signal a pass or to warn oncoming traffic, or cars exiting a driveway, etc. of my presence. I personally think it is a good idea to "flash"your headlamps often and use this trick all the time with great effectiveness. Simply flashing your high beams on and off does not have the same visual impact as completely switching the headlamp on and off. It really does work, people take notice of flashing lights.
I always do this trick, also is recommended by my Country?s Law.
