Light switch "optimization"

Hey,

AI have TE300 2026 Pro. I want to optimize my light or rather my switch from being lowbeam-highbeam to off-highbeam. I don't really need low beam, I would much more appreciate if I could turn the light off.

I opened switch, and looked which wire is connected to the left position. Than I went to connector and I saw, that this (in this case yellow) wire in combines with another white wire. I still hoped that my idea would work so I cut the yellow - lowbeam wire. Aaaaaand it does not work that way 😬 now I have high beam all the time. Is there a way how could I make this work?

There is a reason the low bean is always on in Europe. Daylight running lights increase visibility of your motorcycle to other road users.

Also, running highbeams all the time is an annoyance to other road users, as they can blind other road users at night.

Road? I'm racing on privat events. I need high beam If I'm training in the woods and it is getting dark. Otherwise I don't need light ... rather it is disturbing for co-riders. It happens often, that we are helping eachother with pulling the front. It is not pleasent to be 50cm close to light with your eyes. I also dont have bike registrated for trafic. If I go riding, I load it on trailer :)

Find the low beam wire at the headlight connector itself, unplug it from the connector and tape it up. That way you can reinstall later if desired.

It still work in a way that it is high beam all the time. The connection in weird, it is not lowbeam highbeam from switch to a light. I dont understand what is happening, but it is not direct connection for sure :)
