Saw a guy on a Reflex in a parking lot today and chatted him up, mainly because it looked like he had one headlight out. He told me that the other headlight comes on only when he switches to high beam, and that's how it's supposed to be. REALLY??? Sounded weird to me. I scoot Chinese, so know almost nothing about Hondas, just wondering.

Never mind, have since confirmed that's intentional. Not so bad if they were vertical, but horizontal, every 15 minutes somebody like me is gonna say "Hey, one of your headlights is out!" Pretty dumb idea, IMHO.

It might not seem so dumb if you had ever ridden a Reflex at night after being used to your clone lights.
It is just another way that real Hondas are a little better than the clones. That arrangement is quite common in sport bikes also. I can see the road at night MUCH better than I could with the YY250T.

I have HID's on my YY250T. I run only one light for the low beam and two for the high beam a la Reflex. Running just one headlight helps save the battery on the YY250T which has a marginal charging system. These lights are quite bright even with only one on. I also run 7 watt LEDs for the running lights to improve my daytime presence for other drivers.
