low beam and the two extra lights work just fine....ok so the spotlights are working ok and the low beam, so is your headlight one bulb? My 800 has a single Halegon bulb and it has both the High beam and low beam is right now I would check the filiment in the bulb.  If your bike has two bulbs I am not sure were to go from here. There is only one fuse for the low and high beam.

Man...I haven't had my bike for a week and I already need help from you guys...

For some reason, the high beam has suddenly stopped working. Low beam and the two extra front lights work just fine.

I tried replacing the high beam bulb, but that didn't change anything. So I thought I'd check the fuses and went back in to have a look at the service manual I downloaded (actually for the regular VN800).

Apparently, there's not one fuse for the high and one for the low beam, but rather one single fuse for the entire headlight. So if the low beam is working OK, it simply can't be the fuse. I've checked the cables in the head light shell, and they all seem to be seated OK.

What do I check next? :\
