Headlight Adjustment - GPX250

Postby wazza1234 » Sat May 20, 2006 8:41 am

I ride quite regularly and the bike has never been right since I bought it. At low beam my headlights are shining in the eyes of oncoming drivers and at high beam I can see the tops of trees.

I know there is a screw to adjust the height of the beam but I am unsure as to where it is and what I am looking for (i even have a downloaded copy of the service manual). Are there any current or past gpx250 owners who have adjusted the headlight on their bikes who would care to shed some light (no pun intended) on my situation?

While sitting on the seat, look over the top / arounf your handlebars and forks towards the back of the headlight unit.

There are two white plastic tag like bits, one is on the bottom left of the back of the headlight unit, the other is on the top right of the back of the headlight unit.

The round sort of bit these tags are attached to has a screw in the middle of it (just above the tags). The bottom left one does vertical position. The top right one does horizontal position.

p 86 of my manual.
