Hi. When washing steed this afternoon, I got to the headlamp. The whole lot moved to the right (headlamp and both brackets) but not to the left.. There is something stopping movement to the left.. also I have water/condensation inside the lamp.. Is it normal/or faulty.. Maybe it thinks it's a car with moving headlamps/steering setup!!!
Any light which iluminate my problem will be gratefully received.. RR :hammer: :hammer: :???:

The T-100 and Std bonnie headlight assys are designed to move from side-to-side a little. They shouldn't be loose enough to move while you are riding--tighten the acorn bolts on each side if they are loose. The headlight assy is also not water tight. The headlight shell can and will rust inside. I had moisture get trapped in the wiring sub-harness for the instrument lights corroding the splices and the connector inside the headlight shell. There are many other connectors inside the headlight shell--kinda the crossroads for your bike's electrical wiring. :-D
