Only adjust the beam range to
suit the load when the motorcy-
cle is stationary.

 Turn rotary button 1 anti-
clockwise to the stop

 Change the spring strut set-
ting to suit the load (
b 37)

Readjust the headlight to the
correct basic setting at the ear-
liest possible opportunity.
Headlight adjustment
Right/left-hand riding
If the motorcycle is ridden in a
country where the opposite rule
of the road applies, its asymme-
tric dipped beam will tend to
dazzle oncoming traffic.
Your BMW Motorrad dealer can
supply anti-dazzle masking
sheets for the headlight. Please
observe the enclosed instruc-
tions when applying the sheet.
