Anyways since I have never worked on anything mechanical so when in installing the headlights I didn't label all the wires before I pulled them apart So I didn't exactly know what goes where. So when I finished guesstimating what goes where everything worked but the highbeam indicator. Nothing is melting/blew up so I figure I must have not screwed up bad. Oh yeah do I need diode or something to make high/low function?

Problem#2- I really do think my bike has fuel starvation problems. First because it only runs in prime position and lately I notice that when I choke to warm up it pretty much does nothing to increase rpm so I have been manually warming it up.
So where do you guys think I should start with this issue?I ordered the clymer's manual thru the amazon link.

Problem#3- After the dominator install all the wires are sticking out. I tried sticking it behind the lights but space is tight. How did you all solve this problem.

Thanks.

I am not sure what is not working...highbeam indicator or one of the high/low beams themselves?

if indicator...check for a burned out bulb
if high/low beam...check the switch

Either way...no diode needed.

I stuffed everything as tight as possible behind the light but it looks like the GS light ears are shorter limiting the space. You may need to remove some of the plastic casing on the wire harness to allow it to bend more.

Did you ever get these working?  How hard was it to mount them on the bike?

Where do you plan on tucking all those wires away?

nice, but.. still not something I would do, guess I like plastic too much ?

I want to get some of those tiny gauges so that I can fit the matching dominator flyscreen on there but i cant seem to find anything that works with suzuki
