Headlight Alignment
The headlight should be checked for correct alignment
periodically. It must be aligned any time the suspension
sag is adjusted because this will affect the headlight
alignment. Before the headlight can be aligned, the
suspension sag and tire pressure must be correctly
adjusted. The headlight can be adjusted vertically. If the
vertical adjustment is off, it will cause the beam to point too
close to or too far ahead of the motorcycle. With the
headlight on the low beam position, the motorcycle
perpendicular to the ground, and the operator sitting on the
motorcycle, verify the beam alignment. The motorcycle is
shipped with the headlight at a 0.5-2.5% dip.
The four headlight assembly retaining bolts (A) are located
on the sides of the headlight assembly retaining brackets.
To adjust the headlight, loosen all four bolts, pivot the
assembly until the correct beam alignment is achieved,
then tighten all tighten bolts.
Headlight Bulb Replacement
WARNING! Halogen bulbs contain gas under pressure.
Handling a bulb improperly could cause it to shatter into
flying glass fragments, which could result in serious injury.
To help avoid serious injury:
• Turn the key switch OFF and allow the bulb to cool
before changing the bulb.
• Leave the key switch OFF until the bulb change is
complete.
• Always wear eye protection when changing a halogen
bulb.
• Avoid touching the glass.
