    Low lights go out after using brights.

    Hey guys, crazy weird problem I have been getting lately. I went out for a nice LONG ride down Route 66 from Joliet, IL to Normal, Il (about 90 miles). On the way back, I was riding behind my buddy, so I didn't have my brights on, but when we split off at the end of our trip I turned my brights on, a car approached so I turned the brights off, and my normal head lights wouldnt turn on. This is the second time it's happened. If I start the bike up the next day, regular lights are working fine again...

    Ever heard of this issue?

    I'm riding a 95 Kat 600.

    Thanks!

    sounds like a possible dirty switch or your bulbs are too high of wattage over heating the switch.

      It's definately a dirty hi/low switch. Open it up and clean the contacts.
