Beam setting
(fig. 55)
To check the beam setting, place the motorcycle upright
with the tyres inflated to the correct pressure and one
person sitting astride the motorcycle. The motorcycle
should be perfectly perpendicular, with its longitudinal
axis at right angles to a wall or screen at a distance of
10 metres. Draw a horizontal line at the height of the
centre of the headlamp and a vertical one at the
longitudinal axis of the motorcycle.
If possible, perform the operation in dim light.
Switch on the low beam.
the upper edge between the dark area and the lit area
should not be above 9/10th of the height of the headlamp
centre from the ground.
Notes
Note: this procedure is the one specified by Italian
regulations for checking the maximum height of light beams.
Owners in other countries should adapt this procedure to
the regulations in force in the country where the motorcycle
is used.
The vertical setting of the headlamp is adjusted by turning
the screws (1, fig. 56) that attach it to the side mountings.
