Headlight adjustment on 2011 xtx

[RtxViper]

Anyone know if ther is a headlight adjust up and down? I have the sled start hids the low beam is right on the ground and high beam is not quite high enough. I find my self driving beyond the headlights and I don't care for that.

To get to the adjustment screw, you have to take the body piece off that goes around the handlebar, and then look to the right of the backside of the headlight.

Take the left hand side panel off. It's easiest if you remove the clutch cover. Reach in with your right hand while holding a small philips head driver (stubby one), and turn the adjuster clockwise to raise, counterclockwise to lower.

yes only one screw you can either adjust high beam to the desired hight or get the hid's some have tried shiming the bulbs out to make them closer but i belive the general findings was that wasn't working as it decreased the distance the lights would shine. on my 07 i like it with the high beam adjusted and only run low's during the day or when oncomming traffic apears.
