1. Place the vehicle facing a target wall as described in Service Procedures → Check Headlamp Alignment.
NOTE
Have a person weighing roughly the same as the principal rider sit on the motorcycle.
2. With the vehicle upright and a rider seated on the motorcycle, measure the distance from the floor to the centerline of each auxiliary/fog lamp.
3. Measure the horizontal distance from the headlamp vertical centerline to the vertical centerline of each auxiliary/fog lamp.
4. See Figure 1 or Figure 2. Mark the auxiliary/fog lamp horizontal and vertical centerlines (2, 3) on the wall.
5. Remove the turn signal lamp from the mounting bracket.
6. Using special tool, loosen the auxiliary/fog lamp flange nut only enough to allow movement of the lamp.

7. Turn on the headlamp low beam and cover both the headlamp and the right auxiliary/fog lamp.
NOTE
Figure 1 shows a pattern for motorcycles in countries that drive in the right lane. Flip the graphic horizontally for countries that drive in the left lane.
a. Quartz halogen: Adjust the left auxiliary/fog lamp so the entire high intensity zone (4) is below and to the right of the left auxiliary/fog lamp centerlines as shown in Figure 1.
b. LED: Adjust the left auxiliary/fog lamp so the entire high intensity zone (4) is below the centerline as shown in Figure 2.
8. Repeat procedure with right lamp.
9. Tighten auxiliary/fog lamp nut:
a. Models with flat lens turn signal lamps: 20.3–24.4 N·m (15–18 ft-lbs).
b. Models with bullet style turn signal lamps: 27.1–32.5 N·m (20–24 ft-lbs).
10. Install turn signal:
a. Models with flat lens turn signal lamps: Start two screws to secure turn signal lamp to mounting bracket. Verify that conduit fits in slot at back of bracket and is not pinched. Tighten to 4.1–6.8 N·m (36–60 in-lbs).
b. Models with bullet style turn signal lamps: Secure turn signal lamp to mounting bracket. Tighten to 10.9–13.5 N·m (96–120 in-lbs).
