I was really pleased to learn my 2020 Yamaha Tracer 900 GT had two independent adjustments for their LED headlights - one for high beam, one for low beam - and adjusting one does not affect the other.
That was great, since the factory setting for the high-beam was stupidly high. Brought it down to almost match the low beam, that made a huge positive difference.
I have not been able to even look at this on the MT10... I'm guessing one of you long-time MT10 owners know this info already. What say you... are the MT10's headlights independently adjustable, too?
EDIT: Never mind, I found it on p3-35 of the Service Manual.
The answer is: yes, they appear to be independently adjustable. But it is a bit of an ass-pain to access the adjusters and tweak them.

Yea they're useless anyways. Cool looking lights but useless in the actual dark. I'm going to add some aux lights but I'm trying to find ones with a good beam pattern. |

I am moving these LX-30 Driving Lamps currently on the S1000XR, over to the MT10. I am right in the middle of designing brackets for them; I need to wrap this job up ASAP. The whole point of this project build is to get it ready for a SaddleSore 1000 ride this upcoming Memorial Day weekend. That is fast approaching.  |
