Headlight Lamp Replacement
1. Remove the headlight retaining screw.
2. Lift the bottom of the headlight upward to
unhook the top from the base. Slide the
headlight out of the fairing.
3. Disconnect the wire harness from the
headlight by grasping the harness
connector and pulling it straight back. Do
not pull on the wire harness.
4. Remove the rubber boot from the rear of
the headlight.
5. Squeeze the bulb retainer and move it
away from the bulb. Remove the bulb.
Tip:
Avoid touching a halogen lamp with bare
fingers. Oil from your skin leaves a residue,
causing a hot spot that will shorten the life of
the lamp. If a lamp is touched, clean it
thoroughly with denatured alcohol.
6. Install the new bulb and secure the
retainer.
7. Reinstall the rubber boot, making sure it
seals around the bulb and headlight.
8. Connect the wire harness.
9. Reinstall the headlight to the base and
