No high beam, found broken wire...

Traced problem to a broken black-yellow wire at the headlight plug pigtail. Soldered wire together and heat-shrinked and covered with 3M elastic black tape. Just in case anybody eventually has this problem.

cheese and rice andi ... was not trying to make a joke ... was just pointing out that johnny seems to be running into some bad juju with his ducati as of late ... something that you have also had in the past ... the forest fire incident notwithstanding.

This is a common scenario with those hyper owners who choose to over fill there engines with too much fork oil...
