Beam setting (fig. 71)
When checking the beam setting, put the motorcycle
upright. Tyres should be inflated at the correct pressure
and one person should be sitting astride the motorcycle,
keeping it at right angles to its longitudinal axis. Place the
motorcycle opposite a wall or a screen, 10 meters away
from it. Draw a horizontal line dictated by headlamp centre
E
and a vertical one in line with the longitudinal axis of
motorcycle.
If possible, perform this check in dim light.
Switch on the low beam.
The height of the light spot (measured at the upper
limit between dark and lighted-up area) should not exceed
th
9/10 of the height from ground of headlamp centre.
Notes
This is the procedure specified by Italian standards to
check the maximum height of the light beam.
This procedure should be adapted to suit the regulations in
force in the country where the motorcycle is used.
