MAINTENANCE
Lights
Poor lighting can result in reduced visibility when driving. Headlight and taillight lenses
become dirty during normal operation. Clean lights frequently and replace burned out lamps
promptly. Do not operate this vehicle at night or in low light conditions until the headlight is
replaced. Always make sure lights are adjusted properly for best visibility.
When servicing a halogen lamp, don't touch the lamp with bare fingers. Oil from your skin
leaves a residue, causing a hot spot that will shorten the life of the lamp.
Headlight Lamp Replacement
1. Open the hood.
CAUTION! Hot components can cause burns to skin.
Allow lamps to cool before servicing.
2. Unplug the headlamp from the wiring
harness. Be sure to pull on the connector, not
on the wiring.
3. Turn the lamp counter-clockwise to remove it.
4. Install the new lamp.
Tip: Make sure the tab on the lamp locates properly in
the housing.
5. Reinstall the harness assembly into the headlight assembly.
Headlight Beam Adjustment
1. Place the vehicle on a
level surface with the
headlight approximately
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. Turn
the key on. Turn the
headlights on.
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. Include the weight of a rider on the seat
while performing this step.
5. If a headlight needs adjustment, access the adjustment screw under the hood or through
the wheel well.
6. Loosen the screw, adjust the headlight, and tighten the screw.
7. Repeat steps 4-6 until the lamp is properly adjusted.
