Headlight adjust

On my 02 1100 the adjuster is turned all the way down and the brights still shine up in the trees. I checked the adjuster and it moves through the full range. I know my rear shock is fairly worn out, could I be sagging in the rear that much?

Have the bulbs been changed recently?

Not that I know of. Unless it was before I bought it. I seldom ride in the dark.

It's difficult to do, but they can be installed incorrectly and maybe they're not seated properly. I had experienced a bulb not being seated correctly, but don't recall having to make such an adjustment. Maybe since one was installed correctly.

Anyway, wanted to throw that out there fwiw.

Thanks, I will check.

Just to follow up, I pulled the bulbs (##@$&*) and apparently the PO had changed bulbs to a standard H4 but did not use the adapter ring, so the bulbs were not sitting flat. Adapter rings ordered.
