on a sv650 n

i know that you have the bolt on the left of the headlight and the one on the bottom. the one on the side is for moving the headlight left and right and the bottom is for up and down ... am i right?

well here is my problem just taken my bike out and the headlight is faceing the sky. the bottom bolt is screwed in nearly all the way so why is it not pointing down HELP or am i doing it all wrong ?

i did do a search but all i found was how to do it on a s

cheers nicky s

Try turn the bolt the other way.

If not put it in the middle and move the headlight in the clamps.

Make us a cuppa tea, maybe some malt loaf? Really, the world's your oyster, go for it. Carpe Deum.

If moving the whole unit on its mounts doesn't get it to the proper height then the proximity of so much pi$$ weak beer down south must be altering the laws of physics.
