Before I go to Europe this summer, I need to stop the left illumination from my dipped headlight. Can i Just cover it up with electrical tape??
I've got my high vis jacket, and am picking up spare bulbs soon, is there any other legal requirement for riding on the continent??

Re: Headlight Dip
In honesty, I've never bothered with any of that stuff ...... insulation tape over the headlight and away you go .....
However, If your headlight lense is plastic, be very careful as the tape residue is a bugger if you hae the headlight on all the time.
As far as I'm aware bikes do not need the triangle - where would you carry it
I don't think you need the HV
Don't forget you need both parts of your bike licence, plus reg doc's, etc. .....

Of all the things I have ever lost, I miss my mind the most .....
