It does seem weird. I just read about adding a relay so that when the high beam is on it triggers the relay to power the low beam from a direct (fused) feed from the battery. Actually doing this will make the light brighter anyway as there will be less current drop.
I might do this myself.
On a similar note I realised I will have to manage power comsumption on my KLE more than on previous bikes. I fitted 2 NARVA 55w fog lights and when I turn them on the voltage at the battery drops slowly from 14.5 to 12.5 so I have ordered 2 35w bulbs... hopefully 40w less drain will do the trick.
cheers
