Default Headlight beam adjustment screw

I want to adjust the headlight beam to little lower. I read the manual and I was trying to fine the screw to do that but I am not 100% certain. Can someone with 09 take a pic of your bike and show me what the screw look like and where it is?

Thanks

Behind the headlight there will be phillips screws on the upper corners of the lights. These adjust vertical adjustment. If I recall, its clockwise to lower the light, but I'm sure a quick turn to it will get you to figure it out

You will need to remove a piece of flat black plastic. It is the piece that touches the piece of flat black behind the headlight lens. One Allen Key bolt is all you need to remove to gain access.

Allegedly this repair manual gives you pictures.

Not near my bike so maybe someone can take pics for Yumi.

Nate, I think you miss one part of my post. I do have service manual. The drawing in that sucks. That's why I am asking for the real pic

Is it the big screw right under the corner headlight cover?

You dont have to take the cover off to adjust. Just need a screw driver thatll reach in there. There is a hole ontop of the lil black peice that leads directly to the screw.

Thanks guys. Yes I did find that headlight cover even have an opening to put the screwdriver in. I did the adjustment yesterday morning, and I am happy that I am not beaming people in their rear mirror and people are not blinded by my light. It is still blight, and it is still shinning the street signs etc, but it is not beaming.
