102 ADJUSTMENT
MIRRORS
Adjusting mirrors
Pivot the mirror to the correct
position by pressing gently at
the edge of the glass.
HEADLIGHT
Headlight adjustment for
right- or left-hand traffic
This motorcycle has a symmet-
ric-beam low-beam headlight.
If the motorcycle is ridden in
a country where the oppos-
ite rule of the road applies, its
symmetric low-beam headlight
means that no measures are
necessary to prevent the head-
light beam from dazzling on-
coming traffic.
Headlight beam throw and
spring preload
The headlight beam throw gen-
erally remains constant by ad-
justment of the spring preload
to the load status.
If there are doubts about
the correct headlight
beam throw, have the setting
checked by a specialist work-
shop, preferably an authorised
BMW Motorrad dealer.
