Headlight

Adjusting headlight for
driving on left/driving on
right
If the motorcycle is ridden in
a country where the oppos-
ite rule of the road applies, its
asymmetric low-beam head-
light will tend to dazzle on-
coming traffic.
Have the headlight set
accordingly by a specialist
workshop, preferably an
authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer.
Commercially available
adhesive tape will dam-
age the plastic lens of the
light.
Consult a specialist work-
shop, preferably an author-
ised BMW Motorrad dealer, in
order to avoid damaging the
plastic lens of the light.
Headlight beam throw
and spring preload
Headlight beam throw is kept
constant when spring preload
is adjusted to suit load.
Consult a specialist
workshop, preferably an
authorised BMW Motorrad
dealer, if you are unsure
whether the headlight basic
setting is correct.
