LIGHTS
WARNING
Keep your headlights and taillights clean. Poor light while riding can result in an
accident causing severe injury or death.
CAUTION
Do not service while headlight is hot. Serious burns may result.
Do not touch a halogen lamp with bare fingers. Oil from your skin leaves a residue,
causing a hot spot which will shorten the life of the lamp.
High Beam Headlight Adjustment
The headlight beam can be adjusted up and down.
1. Place the vehicle on a level surface with the headlight approximately 10’’(3m)
from a wall.
2. Measure the distance from the floor to the center of the headlight and make a
mark on the wall at the same height.
3. Start the engine and turn the headlight switch to high beam.
4. Observe headlight aim. The most intense part of the headlight beam should be
aimed 2.8’’ (71mm) below the mark placed on the wall in step 2.
NOTE :
Driving location must be on the seat.
5. To turn the two adjusting screws clockwise is to lower the beam area and to turn
the two adjusting screws counterclockwise is to heighten the beam area.
