Hey, I didn't remember that thread. Turns out I didn't miss a step! Thumbs Up

Cormanus, I will agree with you now. Before last night I was seriously overrunning my headlight at speeds over 45-50 mph. It wasn't that noticeable in the city, but a few weeks ago I took off on a trip about an hour and a half before sunrise. Not comfortable.

That's why I tell people to adjust their headlight to their high beam in the dark. There is so much ambient light in the city low beam is pretty much useless, but get out in the country without ambient light and your high beam can be a life saver if adjusted right.
