Does anyone know if you can adjust the headlights? It is almost dark now on my ride home from work, so far I have had 8 cars highbeam me with my lights on lowbeam. I was wondering if maybe mine are adjusted to high.

Thanks guys, yep I am running with my low beam and people still flash their lights at me. I met my wife for dinner one night and followed her home and even she said my lights were very bright.

The way I look at it is - at least you know they see you - I ride high beams almost all the time (day and night)

i think they are flashing their lights because spooky is actually spooky..lmao

I agree with you there. I ride with only the low beam at night. But at times I do want to turn on the high beam. I was thinking of adjusting the high beam a tad bit lower to the ground and be noticed a little bit more on the road. I would assume that it would increase other car driver's awareness that you are around..

I haven't riden in the dark yet, too much wildlife, but I will be trying soon, how good are the light on the ninja?

 

[Shady Lane]

i think Lights are good. I have never had an issue with them and I ride at night a lot, coming home from work.

 

[Shady Lane]

Ha, I just made myself laugh thinking about the lights. SOMEtimes at night I use low beams. But I prefer to be that much more visible with the high beams on - I mean, you are not really BLINDING them, and like I said earlier at least they see you.

And what made me laugh, as I sit here conversing with myself - is that I love my bike so much. And I have a Two Brothers exhaust on it - so really they HEAR me coming before they see me anyway. LOVE IT

Does anyone know what size the headlamp bulbs are? I think the standard is a H4 but was wondering about the high beam.

 

[Aysee]

Low and high beam are the same bulbs - H7.

Maybe a realtime pic will help a bit.

Turn that black knop(located above inside the fairing above left light) counter clock wise to lower the beam.

 

[spooky]

Thanks guys, I found it. Guess I should'nt ride with the Halloween mask on. Be afraid, be very afraid.

 

[scooter2ninja]

Thanks aysee, ordering new bulbs now :0

 

[Shady Lane]

can you get to that knob by reaching thru or you have to remove fairings? just curious now

 

[spooph]

You can get creative and get in there with your hand, but you'd be better off removing the inside, black, front, under-cowl, which will make this soooo much easier, and it takes like maybe 5 minutes....
