Lights

Headlight and taillight lenses become dirty during normal operation. Clean all lights frequently to ensure a clear field of vision as well as visibility to other vehicles.
TIP
LED LAMPS
If an LED headlamp has moisture or fogging inside, disconnect the wiring harness from the headlamp(s) for a few days to allow the moisture to clear out.
TIP
HALOGEN LAMPS
When servicing a halogen lamp, don't touch the lamp with bare fingers. Oil from your skin leaves a residue, causing a hot spot that will shorten the life of the lamp.

Taillight / Brake Light Replacement

The taillight assembly is not serviceable. If the taillight or brake light fails to operate properly, replace the entire taillight assembly.

Headlight Replacement

If a headlight becomes damaged or inoperable, the entire headlight assembly must be replaced. Do not operate this vehicle at night or in low light conditions until the headlight is replaced. Always make sure lights are adjusted properly for best visibility.

Headlight Beam Adjustment

The headlight beam can be adjusted slightly upward or downward and to the left or right.
  1. Position the vehicle on a level surface. The headlight should be approximately 25 ft. (7.6 m) from a wall.
  2. Place the transmission in PARK.
  3. Measure the distance from the floor to the center of the headlight and make a mark on the wall at the same height.
  4. Apply the brakes. Start the engine. Turn the headlights to high beam.
  5. Include the weight of a rider on the seat while performing this step. Observe the headlight aim. As a starting point, the most intense part of the headlight beam should be 8 inches (20 cm) below the mark on the wall. Adjust to operator preference.
  6. Tighten or loosen the three (3) headlight screws on the rear of the headlight to adjust the beam upward or downward or to the left or right.
