From your profile picture and year of bike I guess you have a fox eye model, in which case both lights should be on. I.e. Both dip beams or both high beam. But obviously not all four elements together as you seem to be describing. The two small pilot lights should also be on irrespective of high or low beam I think.
The Haynes manual may not be of much use as it only covers Up to year 2001 (box eye) as far as I know. The update in the download section on this site is probably what you need. The relay set-up to control the headlamps is very different between the two models. On the fox eye a on-off relay controls power to a second relay which directs power to high or low beam. Sounds to me that the dip is operating but somehow you still have feed to the high beam. Maybe a short across the connections on that second relay or somewhere in the wiring.
Has it worked o.k. In the past or is the bike new to you and maybe a separate feed for high beam has been cobbled up because of a faulty relay?
