RK auxiliary light adjustment?
Can anyone tell me how to adjust the auxiliary lights on my '05 RK? I just picked this bike up and I don't have the service manual yet, I can't see anywhere to loosen them and adjust? I have 1 thats pointing up to high. Any help, Thanks.

RE: RK auxiliary light adjustment?
One of the techs at my HD store simply grabs the passing lamp in his two big paws and "adjusts" the aim. The SM will tell you to remove the turn signalhousing (a couple of scres on the bottom) which exposes the nut that secures the passing lamp to the bracket. I believe it is a 14mm nut. Because the passing lamp positive wire goes through the threaded stem to which the nut is attached, a slotted socket or open end wrench is needed to avoid pinching or tearing the wire; it is very small gauge wire. Congrats on the new bike and good idea to buy the HD service manual.

Some one here has posted a picture of a 9/16" deep socket I think, that he made. Do a search. Anyway, the retainer ring and bulb assy come off and you go inside with this special tool. Never had to do it myself, they moved by just hand adjustment.
