    Hey all,

    Not that its winter im using my lights much more than usual. I only have 1 light on left side working on DIMS, and brought it to a shop and they said that this is the way it should be.... Ie. On high beam the 2 lights light up.

    Does anyone know if this is correct? I thought there would be 2 lights on dims?

    Cheers

    Yep is normal for some bikes to have one light for highbeam and one for dipped.

    what year is yer TDM? I've an old one (91-95 model) and I have 2 dims and 2 full-they just use 2 standard head/dip halogen bulbs, one for each side.

    I believe the 95-whatever model is the same, just cosmetically different.

    I don't know about the latest model at all but you'll have an answer in minutes on this forum.

    Its a '92 TDM 850. I thought it should have 2 dims but the guy in the garage said no. Id kinda like the 2 working in the winter? Strange huh!

    I think he's BSing you mate. I am 99% certain mine has 2 dims and 2 full beams but I do remember something about the UK bikes having a different spec to continental ones so if yours is an import it may be slightly different. The guys on carpetdm will know for sure. Lots of very knowledgeable lads there.
