Mirrors
Adjusting mirrors
Adjust the mirror to the desired
position by turning the housing
and the mirror arm.
Headlight
Adjusting headlight for
driving on left/driving on
right
If the motorcycle is ridden in a
country where the opposite rule
of the road applies, its asymmet-
ric low-beam headlight will tend
to dazzle oncoming traffic.
Have the headlight set
accordingly by a specialist
workshop, preferably an
authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.
ATTENTION
Use of commercially available
adhesive tape
Damage to the plastic lens of the
light
Consult a specialist workshop,
preferably an authorised
BMW Motorrad dealer, in order
to avoid damaging the plastic
lens of the light.
Headlight beam throw and
spring preload
Headlight beam throw is gener-
ally kept constant when spring
preload is adjusted to suit load.
However, a spring preload ad-
justment might not suffice if
the motorcycle is very heavily
loaded. Under these circum-
stances, headlight beam throw
has to be adjusted to suit the
weight carried by the motorcycle.
NOTICE
If there are doubts about the cor-
rect headlight beam throw, have
the setting checked by a special-
ist workshop, preferably an au-
thorised BMW Motorrad dealer.
