Motorcycle Repair: 1987 cbr 1000 hurrican, blown fuse, starter button


Question
My headlight has stopped working. All other lights are working. I have replaced bulb, checked all fuses and conections. I have checked bright switch and found no problems. Any ideas?

Answer
Michael, I believe that your starter button switch on the right side is the problem. When the starter button is pushed in for START, then the headlight is disconnected. Letting the switch button back out, stops the starter circuit and enables the headlight again. Unless you have a blown fuse, then the starter switch is my next best guess.
