happened to a mate in OZ with the same logic. he had a pair with a single lamp in the middle. Copper busted him and made him disconnect the middle jobby.
I get that it probably references back to headlights and not having one out but a light bar..Thats just stupid. @timattalon isn't that ridiculous. Before you had them hooked up to the main beams so they would turn of when you dip your lights? Now I suppose you can have them turned on anytime you like. That's stupidity as well.

Yep I got questioned about mine by the WOF guy, said I needed an on/off switch and couldn't be hooked to my hi beam. I explained I had a push Button on/ off and could turn it off from the hi beam, he said I need another toggle type switch as well? Go figure that logic. They are better operating on the hi beam, with the isolation button in my opinion

Yep I've got HID spots hooked up to hi beam and the light bar on a separate switch so its a work light and warrantable that way so not for highway driving, for off road use.

Yup. They are hooked up to the main beam and I can keep them if I switch them separately to the headlights. I suggested a floor dip switch and using them as my high beam and he said "only if the switch works without affectingt he headlights so it cannot operate the actual High beam. So I can leave my lights on dip, drive around and use the bar as my high beam and choose to whether I use the high beam or not.....

For the Motorbike I had two 3" round spots with 55 watt lamps in them fitted to the high beam. Nope. Not allowed. Only allowed one FITTED. Everything fitted has to work. SO I could not make one a dummy so it looked OK . (One either side of the main headlight) I would be happy with one only allowed to work at a time. Nope. Not allowed. 130w single truck spotlight 7" wide and lights up like daylight? Yup, thats fine. Looks stupid as F_cK but allowed. Only problem now is if I have that on AND the heated handle bars, I dont get enough power to run both and it runs the battery flat.....so I can have warm hands or see where I am going. I would like another bike but this one is n the wedding photos so I will never be able to sell it. Only had it 27 years next month....
