MAINTENANCE
Lights
Poor lighting can result in reduced visibility when driving. Headlight
and taillight lenses become dirty during normal operation. Clean lights
frequently and replace burned out lamps promptly. Always make sure
lights are adjusted properly for best visibility.
Headlight Beam Inspection
The headlight beam can be adjusted slightly. Use the following proce-
dure to make the adjustment.
1. Position the vehicle on a level surface with the headlight approxi-
mately 25 ft. (7.6 m) from a wall. Place the transmission in PARK.
2. Measure the distance from the floor to the center of the headlight
and make a mark on the wall at the same height.
3. Start the engine. Turn the headlight switch to high beam.
4. Observe the headlight aim on the wall. The most intense part of the
headlight beam should be two inches (5 cm) below the mark on the
wall. Include rider weight on the seat when measuring.
Headlight Beam Adjustment (XP EPS)
The headlight beam can be adjusted
horizontally and vertically.
Tighten or loosen the one or more of the
three headlight adjustment screws to
adjust the beam upward or downward
or to the left or right.
