Headlamp Aiming
S-ST-100000
Properly aim the headlamp for maximum road illumination and safety. With halogen headlamps, proper
aiming is very important. The increased range and power of these lamps make even the slightest
variations from the recommended aiming hazardous to approaching motorists.
Observe the following conditions when you inspect or adjust the headlamp aim:
• The scooter is on a level surface.
• The tires are uniformly inflated to the specified pressure.
• One person is sitting on the driver's seat.
• The scooter is in the vertical position.
• Clean the headlamp before aiming.
• Follow your state's requirements for headlamp aiming.
Headlamp Aiming Location
• The aiming area should be darkened and large enough to allow for the scooter and an additional 10 m
(33 ft), measured from the face of the headlamp to the front of the screen.
• The floor on which the vehicle rests must be parallel with the bottom of the screen. If the floor is not
level, compensate accordingly.
Headlamp Aiming Procedure
1. Position the scooter square with the screen, with the headlamp directly over the 10 m (33 ft)
reference line (5).
2. Ensure that the vehicle is on a level surface.
3. Draw a horizontal reference line (2) that is in the center of the headlamp.
