Hi John, A lot of people have written (and sent photos I think) about this. Have you tried putting "Headlight beam" in the Search box, above? Lots of comments there to choose from?. All the best, Chris

Speaking about Birds of Prey...keep a special night-time watch out for the Two-tone Blue Light Shitehawk.....It traditionally hunts in pairs using motorised transport ( in olden days known as a "Jam Sandwich") and approaches in a sneaky manner from behind.........On any Sunday ( where've I heard that before??) you can now find the modern, lazy version called the Bluetit Camera-itus which has a very clever sting in it's technology-based tail...When you get home from that Spring, Sunday morning BLAST round the local A roads etc, you'll find a nice little Speeding Fine already taken from your Bank Account !.............Enjoy !!!

John: I have done this before, but the post is probably on page 45 by now.It is in the Handbook which comes with the bike; page 36.
Correct tyre pressure. Off the stand. One person to sit on it. Roll the bike a few metres to settle the suspension. Position the bike about 8 metres from a wall. Measure the height from the ground to the centre of lamp. Draw a line on the wall at the same height. Start the engine and keep it running. Put the light on HIGH BEAM. The centre of the concentrated light should fall on the line on the wall if focus is correct. If not; loosen the two rim holding screws; One on each side at about 4 o`clock and 8 o`clock positions. Slacken the rim adjusting screw at the top. Move the lamp up or down as required. Tighten all adjusting screws. Switch off the engine and open a bottle of beer.
