Finally I have the bike assembled and was able to try it with the engine running. When I use the full beams it does it only randomly, maybe 2 times out of 10. But when I use the passing button it does it all the time. However I didn't get a chance to check the battery yet. Only thing I noticed is that when I put it on the charger it starts to charge and in 5 seconds it switches to maintenance / trickle charge. So I guess the battery isn't holding the charge. Interesting thing is I started the bike with it a couple times and it always starts on first try without any trouble ... is it possible that the starter pulls less from the battery than the high beam halogens?

Thanks for your reply. I tried it only with engine off. I have the whole front of the bike dissasembled at the moment, can't try it now with engine running. I just got the bike a couple of weeks ago and have no idea what bulbs are in there but from the illumination they produce I suspect halogen. And yes it acts like the load gets too high for the battery to cope. However the battery was fully charged when I tried it. But it isn't new so could be worn out I will have to test the battery for capacity.

By engine running you mean idling or higher rpms?
