I agree, it was the DRL causing the issues.
Sounds like a good plan to let the local guys do it. Hope it turns out well.

Oh, OK. You have to have them up there I understand. I think they are stupid and waste bulb life on a car but OK for a motorcycle. They also annoy my glare sensitive eye a lot of times.
