Headlight range and
5
spring preload
The headlight range generally
80
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 headlight range
must be adjusted to the weight.

If you are unsure whether
the basic headlight setting
is correct, consult a specialized
workshop, preferably an autho-
rized BMW Motorrad retailer.

In the case of very high payloads,
the available spring preload ad-

To avoid dazzling oncoming traf-

be corrected by adjusting the
swivel lever.
