RolBer Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Hello I have a 2011 RT and i have notice some drivers flash there light on me so i think my headlight needs to be lowered. The problem is that the adjustment knob on the dash is stuck, i do not want to put to mutch force on it that i break it. Any hints and tips on what i can do to loosen it up? I did see an exploded diagram of the unit so i know somewhat how it works. I am from norway so my spelling and grammar is not the best. Link to comment
6speedTi Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) My 2012 knob broke when it was new. Replaced a broken collar piece inside under warranty. I left it fully screwed out or in the loose no tension position. It's a good feature but a cheap design. Be careful forcing it. It may be in the full up or down position against the stops. I believe the knob has a set screw holding it on. See if you can remove the knob and get a better look at it. Edited February 27, 2017 by 6speedTi Link to comment
RolBer Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 I took i to my garage today since i have second hand warranty on it. The knob did turn you just had to use force on it, i did not know how mutch but i know now. One bulb was not seated properly so thats why i did blind other drivers. So its all good now. Only thing i need now is something to protect the engine and exhaust from dirt that comes from the front wheel. Link to comment
kbd Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Look at this product for a fender extension - I've used it for several years and I'm pleased with its coverage. Google search provides other vendors/possibilities. http://machineartmoto.com/r1200rt/2010-2013-rt/avant-rt/ Link to comment
RolBer Posted February 27, 2017 Author Share Posted February 27, 2017 Thank you that one look really nice. Link to comment
Karlington1 Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 (edited) I've had the Avant for years...it's an awesome fender for my RT, and my son's GS. No holes in the OEM fender. Latches on with pressure screws and has never come loose (4 yrs later). Edited March 25, 2017 by Karlington1 Link to comment
