Does anyone know of the proper method of setting the headlamp aim to please the good folk of the M.O.T bretheren? I can`t find it anywhere on the `net, but then I`m shite at finding stuff on it.. me adjusters are hidden behind 500 square yards of plastic when the bike`s complete, so I want to do that job, then refit all the bodywork.. ta in advance..

Sit on the bike and measure the height of the headlamp centre from the ground.

Mark a line with masking tape on the wall at this height.

Put your bike about 3 metres away from the way.

Adjust the headlamp so the bright spot is slightly below and to the left of the tape when it's on dip and your sat on the bike.

This should be good enough for the MOT

thats the way ... think the distance is 12'6 but as long as your close the tester should be happy enough
