Headlight Adjustment Distances

[CANAM 4 Stroker]

I have lowerer my front springs so that the A-arms are flat. This has helped the cornering. I am pleased with the set up.

However, it created a headlight aiming issue. I will have to adjustment the beam upwards, to accomadate this 1 -2 inch drop.

I will be installing HIDs in the next few days and would do so then.

Question is : is there a measurement I can work to on the garage door to get this setting correct ? Need distance sled is from the wall and the vertical distance the center of the LOW bean is.

I took mine outside after dark. With the dash panel off, started it up and while sitting on it, adjusted the beam accordingly. The height to adjust to will be different for each rider, it depends on how much you weigh.

Build yourself a remote adjuster with a 10mm socket, 12" 1/4"flex shaft and a 1/4" thumb rachet.

Thanks I will install that adjuster. That solves the problem of having to get the adjustment perfect before leaving for the trails. Looking forward to be able to dial in adjustments on the trail.

I tried this the adjuster on my 2011 and it will not stay on the nut. Falls off as soon as handle bars are even slightly moved.
