no. many of us have done it and if you're charging system is up to snuff it won't hurt a thing.
Will switching wires to burn both high/low beams simultaneously damage charging system?

It could, like with me, melt the plastic connector (housing). Other then that it wont do any harm.
I spliced my high beam into the low so that when bike is warming up I can switch the lights off by turning it to high beam.Will switching wires to burn both high/low beams simultaneously damage charging system?
Low beam side both are on. I did this mod before I had even found this site or the correct procedure.
I've never blown a fuse or had anything to melt. Not to say that couldn't happen.
I did it like 3 years and 20,000 miles ago.
iv tried the mod twice and both times within 30 minutes my battery no longer has enough juice to start...my battery works fine any other time i have left it in the cold for weeks without a start and it always starts just fine...what may be wrong with the bike
done it twice and failed twice...bulbs and battery were fine on both occasions, have '03 Lightning if it matters any
My son had a CityX and thought that the conversion led to that bike's stator to fail. Maybe just a coincidence...IDK. I've done the change 3 or 4 different times on 2 bikes with no ill effects. KOW!
i have an 03 as well
Have '07 Uly no problems w/ mod.
No problems on my '03 when I did it with stock headlights, I switched it back when I was diagnosing a problem with my HIDs.
