buzzing klr headlight

My headlight is making buzzing vibration sound at higher revs. What
do I need to tighten up to fix this, do I need to remove the fairing?
I checked all the bolts I could get to with the fairing on and they
were tight.
Thanks,

Yes. It's the center bracket on the bottom of the head light. Just
remove the broken half and forget about it.

Had the same noise when I first bought a KLR.
Fixed mine by taking off the fairing and tightening the screws that
hold the headlight bulb in place.
Put a little blue Loctite on them before tightening and your buzzing
should go away.

partial inner fender removal!!!!!

I recently discovered a semi-legal way to remove the inner fender!!!
With a dremel moto tool cutting disc, I reached underneath and cut a
crescent shape between the liscence light and the brake light. I
allowed the brake light and remaining inner fender intact and well
hidden. The wires were taped off and will later be removed to the
liscence light. I relocated the plate directly beneath the tail light
on the rear outer fender. With only 2 holes it stays in place and lit
enough by the tail light. I have since been pulled over twice by cal.
highway patrol ...just to check my bike out!!! I even bent the plate
horizontal which lights it great but makes it illegible to passing
motorists and chp. This has been a great thing since my mods make me
the fastest enduro in los angeles traffic and malibu trails!!! Let me
know youre questions, thoughts, among inner fender removal and misc.
mods!
