2. | Park the motorcycle on a level floor (or pavement) in an area with minimal light. | |||||
3. | See Figure 7. Position the motorcycle 7.6 m (25 ft) away from a screen or wall. Measure the distance from directly below the front axle to the base of the wall or screen. | |||||
4. | Mark a horizontal line on the screen or wall, 0.9 m (35 in) above the floor or pavement. | |||||
5. | Load the vehicle with rider, passenger (if normally present) and any cargo normally carried. Weight compresses the vehicle suspension to riding height. | |||||
6. | Stand motorcycle upright with both tires resting on floor. Hold front wheel in straight alignment (directly forward). | |||||
7. | Turn ignition switch ON. Set handlebar headlamp switch to HIGH beam position. | |||||
8. | Check the light beam for proper adjustment. With the beam properly adjusted: a. The main beam of light (broad, flat pattern of light) is centered equally above and below the horizontal line on the screen or wall. b. The main beam of the light is directed straight ahead. Properly adjusted headlamps project an equal area of light to the left and right of center. | |||||
9. | If necessary, adjust the headlamp beam: a. See Figure 8. Raise or lower the headlamp beam, as necessary, by turning the vertical adjusting screw (1). Turn the screw clockwise to raise the beam or counterclockwise to lower the beam. b. Adjust the headlamp beam left or right, as necessary, by turning the horizontal adjusting screw (2).
