Beam setting Note The headlight features a double adjustment, one for the right-hand and one for the left-hand light beam. To check the headlight aim, place the motorcycle upright with the tires inflated to the correct pressure and one person sitting astride the motorcycle. The motorcycle should be perfectly vertical, with its longitudinal axis at right angles to a wall or screen at a distance of 32.8 feet (10 meters).

Turn the low beam on and adjust both the righthand and left-hand light beam: The height of the light spot (measured at the upper limit between dark and lit-up area) should not exceed 9/10th of the height from ground of headlamp center. 9 x 10 10 m 32.8 ft x Fig 198 Note This is the procedure specified by Italian regulations for checking the maximum height of the light beam.
