Hi all, new to this forum. It looks like a treasure trove of good advice for bikers. I found some info about Keeway on this forum but nothing about lights. Anyone got advice on how to fix the brightness of my low beam on this joke of a bike Question High beam works fine. I've changed the battery as the previous owner just let it die completely. And I've changed the bulb as I had a feeling the whole bike was neglected. Now I'm thinking wiring is the problem.

The clue is in the name.

Take the bulb out and ensure that both filaments light on the appropriate switch settings (one one dipped, one on main).

If they are then there's absolutely nothing wrong, thats just how it is.

I've seen other Superlight riders riding at night time and their lights are actually lighting the road. Not like mine. I'll have a look at the filaments though.

it's not dim, it just doesn't work at all.

If the headlight is lit at all that'll be the parking/side light bulb.

Is that headlight even on, are you sure you are not just running on side lights

Might be as simple as getting a bulb that works Laughing Otherwise it's a wiring issue. I have the service manuals if you need them.
