Makes no difference in my experience if you have full beam on or not, if the old twat in the fiat panda aint gonna see you, they aint gonna see you.
FZR600 white wearing white helmet and yellow sash with full beams on a large 40MPH dual carrageway doing 40MPH(for once!
), in broad daylight guy still pulled out. "Sorry mate didnt see you"
HOW THE F**K DID YOU MISS ME YOU BLIND OLD TWAT???????
Im not bitter about the incident or anything...!

Being a fulltime motorcyclist, as in no car licence I think you should listen to "SOMEONE WHO KNOWS" lMFHAO! My opinion is main beam is a no no , If I come pissing round a bend on a country road at 90 plus mph I dont want some twat giving me the highbeam in the face as I wont be able to see shit! So I dont do it to car drivers. I dont want some 4 wheeled spod car to veer into my lane and connect in a fatal headon style and vice versa, dip em C**t and kill the dumb ass fogs to PLZ!

I'm with Steveblade on this one. You've got to take the time to get your lights set up properly so the dip is dipped but usefuland the main lights up as much as possible. Most bikes seem to need sorting - my Triumph has both lights wired on on dip, but still provides a genuine dip and a better main beam.
It would be good if bike manufacturers made adjustment easier. Best of all would be something automatic like in many cars, (my 1997 Peugeot 406 has this) so one could point them down a bit when a pillion got on, without 30 mins mucking about inside the fairing with a screwdriver

I suppose if it was easier to change the rear preload for your pillion you wouldn't need to adjust the lights.
