Abstract
A light distribution screen is constructed of a main light distribution region including a main optical axis, a low light intensity region darker than an upper part of the main light distribution region, and high light intensity regions brighter than an upper region of the low intensity region. A corner can be brightly illuminated when the motorcycle is cornering, which means that the visibility of the corner can be improved and oncoming traffic is not dazzled when the motorcycle is travelling straight on.

A headlight for a motorcycle having a main optical axis that is caused to be aligned lower than a line H with a light distribution screen when a motorcycle frame is upright, wherein said light distribution screen comprises:
- a main light distribution region including the main optical axis;
- a low light intensity region darker than an upper part of said main light distribution region;
- and
- a high light intensity region brighter than an upper region of said low intensity region, wherein said high light intensity region is outside 10R and outside 10L, and a region inside 10R and inside 10L has a light intensity equal to the upper region of said low intensity region.
A headlight for a motorcycle having a main optical axis that is caused to be aligned lower than a line H with a light distribution screen when a motorcycle frame is upright, wherein said light distribution screen comprises:
- a main light distribution region including the main optical axis;
- a low light intensity region darker than an upper part of said main light distribution region;
- and
- a high light intensity region brighter than an upper region of said low intensity region, wherein light distribution of said high light intensity region does not exceed 1000 candela, and a region inside said high light intensity region has a light intensity equal to the upper region of said low intensity region.
