Aiming/adjusting headlight

I searched google and here for aiming and adjusting the headlight with no luck.

Can anyone give a helping hand?

Thanks,
Chris

Given it works identical to the EU version, this is a nasty procedure.
Probably the most nasty thing with the NC so far.
You need to crawl under the beak with a Phillips screwdriver and fumble in the dark near the right fork tube until you detect the 90° offset cogwheel where the screwdriver fits in (hardly visible), directing upwards. Prior to that, check manual which way to turn (logical thinking would not explain it). Then, turn cogwheel and watch beam raising or lowering slowly. I personally tried several times even on the workshop platform, but was not really sure about success.

Ok, not everything can be as easy as riding a NC700X DCT.

The procedure is described in the manual, so just have a look there. However, the pictures in the manual showing the location of the cogwheel are not helpful at all.

Here is a youtube video on proper alignment.

Hope some help.

There is a very poor illustration and explanation of how to adjust the headlamp in the owners' manual under "other adjustments" Together with Phil's explanation it might help you make sense of the job.

Many thanks, I'll give it a try tonight.

Was easy enough. As a note, clockwise moves the beam up
