Quetion ?

If i wire another light into the headlight wires ? Will it dim them ??

I wanna hook up another light facing the pavement, on my lower. For a wheelie light and i don't wanna toggle switch or anything ???


Any suggestions ??

Maybe adding a relay? I don't think it would be good to just wire in another light without protecting the circuit somehow. But I am no expert in wiring.

might wanna run it thru a relay. too much draw on the factory wiring will pop fuses left and right, and/or burn up the wiring.

or, you could just wire it straight to the battery thru a mercury switch so that it comes on automatically when you tho' that sucka up.

a tip sensor would work too, but with the way most of them are set up, the light would flicker alot when the little ring in it bounces around. i used a mercury switch on one of my old bikes and it worked fine till i forgot that light was under there and tried to hop a curb. crunch.

I was thinking of recessing it into the fairing so the light was flush, with the bottom of the fairing.
