    Apologies for being a bit lazy with this one:

    I rode an indoor Endurocross event at the weekend (first motorbike race ever) and I got a bit of grief for not turning my lights off. The timekeeping was manual and they were having difficulty seeing my number head-on due to the lights being on (no comment).

    Other than pulling a fuse out, am I right in thinking there's no way to turn them off?

    Thanks in advance for any replies.

    Shouldn't the light switch have three positions 1=pilot light, middle=main light and 3=high beam?

    Not now, EU regulations state you have to have daylight running lights, so the new style switches have the first position blanked off. Using the older 3 position swich, it may be possible to turn the lights off if the wiring is the same. Otherwise fit another switch in series with the lighting supply wire (Yellow)

    Just buy a dpst switch and install in series with the power wire to the main headlight and zip tie it to the handlebar.
