Headlight Beam Adjustment
1. Place the vehicle on a level surface with the headlight approxi-
mately 25 ft. (7.6 m) 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. Apply the brakes. Start the engine. Turn on the headlights.
4. Observe the headlight aim. The most intense part of the headlight
beam should be aimed 8" (20 cm) below the mark placed on the
wall in step 2.
NOTE: Include the weight of a rider on the seat while performing this step.
5. If the headlight needs
adjustment, open the
hood.
NOTE: The lights are part of the
hood assembly.
6. Turn the adjustment screw
to adjust the beam.
7. Close the hood. Repeat
steps 4-6 until the beam is
properly adjusted.
