zx14R Hi Beam adjustment screws, which way...??

The Kawasaki manual says to rotate the lower headlight adjustment screws either left or right, to move beam left or right. It does not say which to turn the adjustment screw to move the left or the right high beams left or right.

Can anyone advise the proper left and right adjustment? Do they operate the same.

Also, same info needed for two vertical screws. Which way elevates or lowers the high beam. Are they the same protocol for both screws?

The manual left that part out!

I don't need you to tell me how amazing I am.......just answer the question....if you can..... Since you don't know the answer.... just say nothing......leave some room for someone who knows the answer.

I would rather you not responded to any of my postings anyhow.....

You are NOT obligated to respond to each and every single posting on this site.....go ride your bike or do something constructive..

Maybe you can write a book on the ZX14 and sell it to Kawasaki......about your expertise....

You still don't know how to adjust the headlights!!

If you can't be helpful..why don't you just not log into this site.

Sounds like you need an attitude adjustment...

I could fix your headlights in about 30 seconds, but, you are a worthless douche. Anyone want to be nice to the troll and help him out?

Ninjawarrior, do you really believe these guys don't know the answer? Seriously?
The attitude you've displayed towards some of the most knowledgable and respected forum members means you are unlikely to get the time of day from anyone.
I hope you get your very difficult problem sorted.
Perhaps your Dad will fix it when you hand the bike over on his return from Afghanistan.

I don't respect idiots... would rather they just pass my topics by......and save their expertise for someone else.

This is supposed to be a site to help each other....it is mostly personalities of the same 5-6 idiots who think they know everything about everything.

It is what it is......simple headlight adjustment question.....all this posting....and nothing but reinforcing the same old mentality day in and day out. Now they have YOU involved....guilty by association.

If you are a service manager why don't you go do your job and get off this site....I sure don't need to hear from you, just go away.....like a stinky fart.....go away soon! Can you do that? You just like to show everyone who you really are.....wonder if you treat all your customers who walk in the door this way.......? Sure wouldn't send you any business, no wonder everyone thinks dealers are cycle thieves......over 9000 postings....is this all you have to do with your life?
Go get a life.....any women tolerate you....or is this the only thing you have to do is give your opinions......opinions are like ass holes....everyone has one........

You have the worst one here on this site....

You are a service manager and don't even know how to adjust a headlight.......how do you put gas in a motorcycle? Ok maybe you have to ask the woman at the cash register to come out and help you.......

Business must be real slow at your dealership in a Saturday morning when you can send me several messages before lunch time........ maybe your attitude makes potential customers go to another dealer for help.......oh yes......almost forgot you don't know how to adjust headlights on a 14r.....

So you aren't as smart as you profess to be.......you can fool some people most of the time, but you can't fool all the people all of the time......ever heard that before?

I have seen boatloads of patience from Smokin. Still, he is being nicer than some others on this site have been. I assure you that, after reading his posts on here, I would let him do whatever work on my bike that he thought I should get done, without reservation.
The problem is YOUR attitude. And, I sencond the motion that you find another site, preferably one for tricycles and scooters, where you belong.
If you had not answered Wee with, "I don't need you to tell me how amazing I am.......just answer the question....if you can..... Since you don't know the answer.... just say nothing......leave some room for someone who knows the answer." you might have actually gotten an answer from someone else in the room eventually. But, your attitude has insured that you will never get anything but sarcasm and contempt from anyone who has any real knowledge in this forum.
BTW, I am not one who is quick to write someone off, but, I have let you have enough rope to hang yourself and now, I shall join Wee and Smokin and anyone else who wants to make sure that you find no benefit from posting on this forum.
If you want to lurk, and learn, while keeping your mouth shut, you are still welcome to.
Now, I eagerly await your attempt at a comeback.

You can't even spell the word seconded properly...another 3rd grade moron.....! Not talking to you so butt out! You can write me if you have a high school education...but since you dropped out in 3rd grade......you can converse with him since you two are kissing buddies.

You are going to drive your bike from El Paso Texas all the way to Tampa to have that guy work on your bike, he doesn't even know how to adjust headlights!

You two must have something intimate going on.....kissing buddies....or maybe more?

My boatloads of patience is wearing thin too....maybe I need to up the ante a bit....

Goldwingman/ninjawarrior1244, that is exactly why you get 0 respect here, YOU'RE A FAKE, not hard to spot that either, just like you post your mods on another forum with the same user name then you come here and ask what mods should I get, YOU'RE A FAKE, lead us to think your dad is in Afghanistan fighting for the United States and you are fixing up a 14r for his return, YOU'RE A FAKE, .asking if you need to adjust your chain after lowering your R1 with a different user name, YOU'RE A FAKE, and asking the same question about your 14r with another user name, YOU'RE A FAKE, see where I'm going with this? YOU'RE A FAKE.

Members here will answer any legitimate question, or give an opinion if needed, it doesn't matter if it's drag racing, curves, cruiser's, expert rider, beginner, or somewhere in between, the difference is those members are not A FAKE !

I'm beginning to believe goldwingman/ninjawarrior1244/gixxerjohn are all the same person, funny I can watch when y'all login and log out, appears to be around the same time hehe.

YOU'RE A FAKE, Troll somewhere else,

Head light adjustment 101 .. Stick the screw driver up your ass and turn clockwise till your left nut drops .. Now be real carefull and turn it just a 1/4 turn more and the other nut should drop .. wiggle the screw driver back a bit till both nuts are dropped the same amount .. You can tell if you have it right because your voice should get just a bit lower .. Don't leave the screw driver in place to long because it may blindness ..

It takes a 10mm socket, NOT a screwdriver you idiot!! You get stupider every time you post!!

I thought you knew something about motorcycles...you don't even know the difference between a screwdriver and a wrench. The headlight adjustment is a 10MM Bolt.....you don't even have a ZX14r, maybe a Honda 500??

I can't put it in my ass cause you are so far up there it won't fit!!
