Default RE: headlight problems

Had the same problem once upon a time.

It can be a switch... but not necessisarely the one you're thinking (high/low beam).

Check the switch on the right hand side... mine had a intermitent short at the start button. Pull off the right hand start/stop assembly, and short out the leads that bypass the headlight when you crank the bike over. Mine failed there. If you're good with a soldering iron, you can resolder the wire onto the pin.

(note that it may LOOK like it's connected... so give all 4 of the wires that connect to the "push to start" switch a good wiggle and make sure they are truely connected.)

Good luck!

That must be more common then i thought. I had the same thing puzzle me for a few days.. Wire inside the starter box came unsoldered.

it's really common for stuff to shake loose. i never had any issues but my friend's 2001 CBR600 F4i had an issue with the frontturnlight after he upgraded to flush mounts.we kept looking at the turn signal and turned out to be a problem in the wire harness...go figure.

are u using a volt meter to test the relay with?
