If, for a high load, the adjust-
ment of the spring pre-load is
no longer sufficient not to dazzle
oncoming traffic:
Turn adjuster knob 1 in a
counter-clockwise direction in
order to lower the headlight
beam again.
When the motorcycle is again
ridden with a lower load:
Have the basic settings of the
headlight restored by a special-
ist workshop, best of all by a
BMW Motorrad dealer.

tical position.
