Headlight

Headlamp range and
spring preload
The headlamp range generally
remains constant due to the ad-
justment of the spring preload to
the loading state.
Spring preload adjustment may
only be insufficient when the mo-
torcycle is very heavily loaded.
In this case, the headlamp range
must be adjusted to the weight.
NOTICE
If there are doubts as to the cor-
rect headlight range, have the
adjustment checked by a spe-
cialized workshop, preferably by
an authorized BMW Motorrad
retailer.
