The tape over a section of the light unit idea will NOT do if you are going all the way legal in Europe! It just might get you off a hook if you are stopped by the police while on 'holiday' .. but these days nothing is for sure .. they all want your money!
If you are importing a bike you have to have the EU Spec light units that are fitted to Bikes sold within that country.
The Part Numbers are different to the UK Spec units .. and the dipped headlight beam will go Right not Left!
Putting a bike onto a Spanish Registration Plate (For example) will cost you
a lot of money .. I suggest you do your homework before you move the bike from the UK
It could work out far less expensive and much less agro to sell the UK bike and buy another (better
) one once you are sorted and settled over here in Europe!
