For my 05 600rr. Basically when I start my bike or atleast turn the key to the on position, the lights will not always come on. So sometimes I tap the engine kill switch with a light bump of my fist or a screwdriver and the headlights come on.

Used contact cleaner, helped for a while, but I’m sure needs a switch. Anyone done one of these? The manual isn’t very clear, and I tried to remove it but getting the cable out of the slot for the throttle was giving me a hard time.
