Proper headlight adjustment
Well I have the 21" on front and for a couple more weeks, the draggin baggers on the rear. My problem is this... I dont know if it is my setup that has raised my headlights up or os it just a standard issue with a RKC but every time I aproach a vehicle heading in the opposite direction, they always flash their lights at me and I have my low beams on. I think that I need to know the propoer procedure or height to adjust my head lights.

RE: Proper headlight adjustment
Fairly simple process.
Make sure you do this on level gound.
Find your self a wall, measure back 25 feet from the walland place your wheel on that point with the front axle centered over that point.
Measure from the center of your headlight bulb to the ground, and then transfer that measurement to the wall at the same height.(use a piece of tape about 2 foot long)
Turn on you headlight with someone sitting on the bike, and split the beam above and below that tape.
