Da "R1200GS Tricks":

Turning the Headlights OFF
The procedure is as follows:
Turn the ignition on and allow the startup-check cycle to complete. The headlights will be off (this is normal).
Hold turn-signal cancel switch for 4-5 secs.
Hold right turn-signal switch for 4-5 secs.
Start engine.
Lights should remain OFF.
This will reset next time you switch off the ignition. The headlights will be off, but the running lights and tail light will remain on.

Note 1: Nikos Skarentzos wrote to say that you can use this trick to turn the lights off while you're riding, that is, after you've started the engine. You still have to stop and turn the engine off before you can get the lights back on, however.

Note 2: Tim Jones wrote to say that on his '07 Adv model (without servo brakes) just hitting the high beam or passing switch will turn on the low beam again. This apparently does not work on '05 and '06 models. Tim put a video clip showing this on YouTube.com
