High Beam Adjustment (Headlight Pod)
The headlight beam can be adjusted slightly upward or downward. Use
the following procedure to make the adjustment.
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface with the headlight
approximately 25 ft. (7.6 m) from a wall. Place the transmission in
PARK.
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. Turn the headlight switch to high beam.
4. Observe the headlight aim on the wall. The most intense part of the
headlight beam should be two inches (5 cm) below the mark on the
wall. Include rider weight on the seat when measuring.
5. The adjustment screw is located on
the right side of the headlight pod.
To adjust the beam, loosen the
screw. Adjust the headlamp to the
desired position, then tighten the
screw.
