ADJUSTING THE
HEADLIGHT BEAM VERTICALLY
NOTE
The procedure described her is in compliance with
the Italian standard that establishes the maximum height
of the headlight beam. For motorcycles used in other
countries, you must conform with the local regulations.
To quickly check the correct direction of the beam,
place the motorcycle on flat ground, 10 m (32.81 ft)
away from a wall.
Turn on the low beam, sit on the motorcycle and make
sure that the beam projected on the wall is slightly
under the horizontal line of the headlight (about 9/ 10th
of the total height).
To adjust the headlight beam:
Working from the left rear side of the front part of the
fairing, adjust the screw (1) with a short Philips screw-
driver.
By SCREWING IT clockwise, you set the beam
higher.
By UNSCREWING IT counterclockwise, you set the
beam lower.

ing screws which are supplied as a kit. They will be
