They are literally duplicated relays driving both dipped, the same as the mains.
Bit of wiring and your done..

The steamer has both on for highbeam, problem is on my bike there isnt anything to plug the second relay into, it's just wired that way, only thing I can do is redo the wiring to add a plug for a second relay.
Bummer, I like to keep stuff original but hate the one eye look...

Start with the easy stuff & check the hoses from the iacv. They are a weak point & can split. Most owners replace them with 6mm internal diameter (i think) silicone hose.

In most cases this is the cause of a rough idle.

Original UK bikes had only one headlight on low & one off from the factory. My 06 Tiger was like this when I bought it. Something to do with car drivers seeing two lights & not being able to tell if it was a car a long way away or a bike close up. All UK bikes, not just Triumphs were at one point the same.

I bought an extra relay from ebay & plugged it in to the empty plug on the left under the nose cone so I could have both lights on dip.

Can't rember if only 1 or 2 main beam lights came on originally but they do now.
