Personally, I never got blinded by high beams during the daytime. Only at night do they present a problem and mainly on two lane undivided highways. I think its a good idea to keep that bike as visible as possible and to those that find a bright headlight from a passing motorbike annoying (during daytime) should consider the other guy's safety concern. I sometimes think folks are too finicky and get pissed off too easily. I agree with Texas and their safety requirements.

I live in an area where there is a lot of retired folks and thinking what could be bad about using a high beam during the daytime . I really hate it when people jut out in front of me making a turn. I am wondering how visible are we to others.Thoughts ?
This is a nonissue for me. The more visibility I have, the better. Period Exclamation point
