JRO,

Here here, Brother !!!!

I couldn't agree more. twin headlights are safer than one.

More light on the road, and more easily seen.

All this "It looks like a car's headlights at a distance" is absolute rubbish (IMHO).

Someone on here should take up the challenge and do the twin conversion.

Graeme.
Well, it's foolish. Sure, at night, at distance, I admit I have noticed that occasionally a dual-headlight bike can fool you into thinking it COULD be a car. As everyone knows, this is quickly dispelled, as the distance closes. I have no idea why any English motorcycle company would put two headlights on a bike, in a one-headlight country. "Silly', is the word that comes to mind. Either make 'em both work, provide the option, or go back to a single light.

... Of course, as we all know, there are no foolish rules or regulations or design engineering, in America.
