CBF125 headlight alignment

Hi guys and gals

Just wondering if someone could help me please.

Long story short... I managed to lowside my cbf 125 in the wet a few weeks ago. Now that the nights are drawing in, I've noticed my headlight seems to be pointing quite high up the road. The crash shifted the fairings and bent the bracket slightly that holds the fairing, headlight and clocks.

Does anyone know if the headlight can be adjusted? Im looking for an adjuster knob like that on a car but I'm not having any luck. Just until i replace the bracket

Cheers!

you need to bite the bullet , remove the fairings and get a hammer or bar on the fairing mounts . the headlamp is only designed to be adjusted so much .

What he says! Best take the bracket off the bike and get it in a vice then get a blow torch on the bent bit and hammer it straight. Thumbs Up

Thanks for the replies. Looks like im going to have to try and straighten the fairing bracket until i replace it. Dont think the headlight will adjust low enough.

Cheers!
