Breva headlight

[Gazdok]

I changed my headstock bearing today. When I took the headlight off I noticed that the reflector was very wobbley inside kind of rotating around the fixed bolt with a black cap while I could slide the adjustment screw in and out of the housing.
Looking into the headlight the adjustment screw sits in a white socket. The part with an arrow I would have thought should be fixed to the housing.
If anyone has their headlight open could you just check whether yours is fixed or loose.
I took a video clip but am not sure how to upload it into guzzitech.

I believe that white nylon block should be secure and the adjusting screw head fits into a ball and socket. Ive come across 2 breva headlights where those plastic fittings crack, possibly due to the heat in there. Both times a replacement headlight was required as you cant get into it without doing serious damage.

In my opinion the 1100 Breva headlight is useless. I replaced mine by converting to LED for much less that a replacement Guzzi headlight. See https://www.guzzitech.com/forums/threads/headlight-conversion-for-the-1100-breva.18970/

Thanks for the replies.

I agree about the quality of the headlight and it is a fairly poor design.

Does the LED headlight you converted to John have cornering light function?
That is definitely something I would like for bendy unlit road as often I feel I am just flying blind around the bends.

The one I purchased works well. Of course you will need a UK variant as you guys like the other side of the road.
