A 21 model year Triple Black TE. Had my TC for ten years and recently sold a classic Triumph so the money was burning a hole in pocket, £7000 PX persuaded me too.
Sorry, I meant which Version of the Light Unit did you buy?

The one in the original post, E24.Sorry, I meant which Version of the Light Unit did you buy?
I've bought one and reverted back to OEM. The unit was vibrating a lot and i kept getting the LAMPF error.
Also the DLR switches with the parking light. So it is only on when the engine is not running which kind of sucks too.
As far as i know there is only one E24 unit. There is are older units with E9 markings (LC style without bottom hole, and "classic" with bottom hole).
And as you can see here:
The DRL are not on when either hi or lowbeam are on.
Can you point me to the one you're talking about? I've bought this E24 unit
Fitting report to 2012 R1200GS.
Long story but I ended up not getting my headlight but my friend got his. I’m not sure if it’s the original or latest E24 but we fitted it yesterday. It has the adjuster and the locating hole.
Anyway, during fitting it became obvious that the rubber bungs weren’t up to the job, too thin, so the originals needed to be transferred over, this included the three on the instrument mount and the two side ones on the headlight.
When it was loosely fitted, the wiring is very simple and straightforward, we checked it: Ignition on = DRL. Start the engine = DRL/Low beam. Switch to high beam = DRL/Low beam/High beam. All appeared perfect until the high beam was turned off and the low beam went as well, not coming back on, which would not be good on dark road.
Our immediate thought was send it back for the promised full refund and free postage to a UK address.
However, after faffing around for another 15 minutes we discovered it has an anomaly rather than a fault. If you leave it for around 15 seconds after starting the bike before you check the high beam or flash the high beam it works perfectly, we tried it over and over again and no problem, providing you let it settle for around 15 seconds after starting before switching to main beam. it looks really good making the front end more up to date and compared to the original it’s like night and day. He’s decided to keep it on, it fits just the same as the original, with the original’s rubbers. No wobble or vibration. He’s due his MOT now so I’ll report on that when it happens.
