The following headlamp aim inspections and adjustments will be accurate only when tire
pressures and suspensions are at factory-recommended settings. Refer to safety labels on the
vehicle or to the specifications section beginning on page 84. The vehicle must also be
unladen (without fuel, rider weight or cargo weight).

3. Move the ignition switch to the ON

position to turn the lights on. Place the
headlamps on low beam.
