R18 Classic
I have an R18 Classic that I'm taking to France in May. The bike is a UK model.
Does anyone know if the headlights have to have a converter or nee to be adjusted to drive on the right? I can't seem to find the answer on Google or in the handbook.
Cheers!
 
Yes as headlights are asymmetric they need ´adjusting´.
It can very well be that they can be electronically changed.
I suggest you contact BMW.

This how to on some car models:
