Beam Setting - Ducati Diavel ABS 2012 Owner's Manual

Beam setting

(fig. 164)
To check the headlight aim, place the motorcycle
upright with the tires inflated to the correct pressure
and one person sitting astride the motorcycle. The
motorcycle should be perfectly vertical, with its
longitudinal axis at right angles to a wall or screen at
a distance of 32.8 feet (10 meters). Draw a horizontal
line corresponding to the center of the headlamp and
a vertical one in line with the longitudinal axis of
motorcycle.
If possible, perform this check in dim light.
Switch on the low beam.
The height of the light spot (measured at the upper
limit between dark and lit-up area) should not exceed
9/10th of the height from ground of headlamp center.
Note
The procedure described here is in compliance
with the Italian Standard establishing the maximum
height of the light beam.
Owners in other countries will adapt said procedure
to the provisions in force in their countries.
