Pass switch

That's a moment activated passing lamp tied into the high beam correct? We have this on cages but I don't know of a bike sold in the US that has one.

i am sad that i don't have that switch I have ridden some bikes that have it and it is cool to have, not sure i would use it to pass though as that would probably cause some hostility in my neck of the woods. (Flashing lights in my area usually means, speed the F up you poorly driving mother f-er)

is this wired in separately on the harness or is it switch contained in the housing itself? Would be a cool a little add on if you could get the part in the US. Even if you didn't use it for passing, I'm sure you could hook something up to that switch.

btw I know the Triumph 675s come with in it standard in the US also.

My brother-in-law's SV1000S had one, as did my neighbors Katana. I think it is a Suzuki thing...

I do not see a need for it, as every time I have flashed my highbeams to pass someone, they get pissed and slow down.

Americans don't have a pass switch because Americans don't pass. No, seriously, before buying my '07 FZ6 I sat on a '07 Suzuki SV650S that was right next to a Kawasaki 650, I had to ask the floor person what the heck an unfamiliar switch was. He answered "passing switch." Even though the US version 2007 FZ6 doesn't have a pass switch---guess what?---I BOUGHT IT!

They get a centre stand, we get a pass switch

Whoops, I assumed the poll was talking about using your blinkers...scratch one EVERY time vote and add one NEVER. Should've read further before voting, thats what I get for assuming...

In UK we get both.
But then again we pay a fortune for ours here.
