I simply added the two relays but haven't altered the lens (of the right 
headlight I guess in my case). I assume this is still set-up to focus for 
high beam only, and changing it is not something I had previously thought 
of doing. Did you get a new headlight or just the lens? From a Triumph 
dealer or direct from Hella/Bosch? Sorry about all the questions, but 
you've got me thinking ... always dangerous.

I don't think so - you just need to add the additional relays to get 
"proper" lighting.

It is not yet compulsory to be riding with lights on in the UK - in fact 
there appears to be more evidence each year that riding with lights on in 
bright sunlight reduces visibility of the biker. However, that's another 
argument. ;-)

You are a gentleman. If I'm heading over to your part of the planet I'll be 
sure to drop you a note. Thanks for the kind offer and needless to say I'd 
be glad to do likewise if you visit Scotland.
