Headlight adjust?
« on: October 09, 2015, 04:00:50 PM »
Think I've done this before quite awhile ago, but for the life of me can't find the adjustment to raise the headlight angle up a bit...can anybody help with a pic?

Pic not necessary if somebody has done it and can explain...I think I see an adjustment thingy on the right looking up from underneath, will a large phillips do it? And, which way to rotate to raise the beam higher?

Correct. Though I'm unsure which one is lateral and which one is vertical. And which way you turn :-/ The manual spells it out though.


The #3 phillips bit from the tool kit works peachy.


Best bet would be to put the bike on the centerstand 10-20 feet from a wall, easier to see the beam. Adjust as needed.

Addendum. The adjuster on the lower left side is up-down. The adjuster on the upper right side is left-right.
