Headlight aiming question

2458 Views 14 Replies 10 Participants Last post by  "Captain D"
So I think that I may need to adjust my headlight. It seems that at 35-40 miles an hour I am riding faster then the light hits the ground for the 2 second rule. I have read in multiple places that you should have the bike on a level ground 25 ft from a wall. That is where I have my issue. I have quite a slanted driveway, so I have maybe 10 ft in front of the bike when parked in the garage on a level surface. Is there another way to adjust the headlight with this short of space. My worry is that if I take it to a parking lot to use a wall, I may screw it up worse and then have to ride it home like that. I would rather do this in the safety of my garage. Thanks

Good Luck,

It`s dark out now, aiming is easy when dark :D
It`ll only be dark a couple more hours, then you`ll hafta wait 12 hours for dark to return :D

IF you wanna do it in the dark;)

Speaking of lights...
Big Dog has had problems with his "cornering" or "Passing" or "Light bar" or "Spot"
Lights, whatever you wanna call them...
But the shop has not fixed them in the three years I`ve been riding with him...
