Okay, so I ride my XB9R to work with no problem. When I get off tonight I have no headlights, high or low beam. The high beam indicator light is on even with the high beam switch in the off position. I have not had a chance to check the fuses yet but I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem before? [mad]

Bulbs/fuse blown check the wiring connectors

Bulbs, fuse, the pins can get loose in the head light connector. Have you ever done the dual head light mod?

I checked the fuses, bulbs, and connectors, all appear to be fine. My turn signals all work fine, just no headlights at all. [mad]

sounds like your going to have to get out the voltmeter to do some troubleshooting. start at the headlight connector and work your way back trying to see where you do have voltage.

Happened to my xb9r also. It was just a relay in the fuse box (clutch side). You can switch them out to figure out witch ones bad. I picked up a couple at the harley shop(they actually had them in stock). They where 5 bucks a piece. I always carry a spair now.

Found the problem, ground wire burned out at the harness on the brake side. Did a temporary fix until I can replace the harness. Thanks for all the input guys!:D
