I don't think that target fixation will happen unless there is some other primordial emotional response associated with the visual target. You target fixate on the outside of the corer, or the car's bumper, because you are afraid to go there. Car drivers are not going to fixate on a modulating head]
Well Fred, I've seen people fixate on a shiny gum wrapper on the sidewalk. Remember, those kind of folks walk/drive among us.

And some times I believe that they greatly outnumber us...

;-)
I honestly can't see how modulating headlights increases the chance of target fixation. In my experience, I have never seen it happen. In fact it has been the opposite, where a driver looks at the light and then the focus is broken as it modulates.

I have had the same experience with deer in the headlights. By flashing my high beams on and off it breaks the spell and they run off rather than just standing there mesmerized by the lights.
 
I think the research shows a 3 point lighting pattern is the most effective. The 2 extra points being aux lights of your choice mounted lower on the forks, usually in the fender mounting holes. I have Piaas but anything bright will work. The relatively inexpensive leds available now work quite well.

 
I have not been able to do anything yet to the headlights. I have found on E-bay, that the wife likes, a set of LED lights that have a high, low and pulse mod to them. I thought that was neat. They also have "Angle" eyes when they are not turned on.

 
got a link to that ebay item...?!??!

I posted this in another thread but it fits here also

This is a reasonably priced investment, but well worth it, these lights get noticed....

Its the different color temp that makes them stand out...

I always thought the FJR's lights were pretty darn good until recently....
Dropped a pair of the LR4's from LEDRider on the Wynpro mirror bracket.

Using the dimmer setup at the lowest point for day light running and flip the high beams on, they go full blast - WOW

Super Duper Impressed for a very meeger amount of money outlay....

I ran them off the fuzeblock - very nice product https://www.fuzeblocks.com/
