I have an 06 with the headlights that lo points to the ground for hi to look forward. Raise the lo so it will look down the road and then hi is focused at the top of phone poles 30 feet down the road. Did Buell ever change the housing to correct this anamoly. I suppose it is great for city riding but living in the country and never going into cities, particularly at night I would like a headlight housing that points both lights down the road.

Is it possible that one of the bulbs is not seated correctly? Mine (08) line up pretty well.

Sounds like your headlight assembly isn't aimed correctly. There is a procedure for it in the SM, but I find it best to do trial and error. : )

Back in 06 this was a very minor issue that came up once in awhile on this web. That the housing put to much of a verticle spread between the lo and hi beams.
