I had an issue like this just this week
I notice you have replaced the bars
If you spliced your wires when you did the bars check those splices. If the splice has come lose for the HB then your switch wont work anymore. Check the wiring where it plugs into the bulb. Are all the connectors connecting?
Could be the switch but most likely not. It is a simple on off circuit. Like a home light switch. No fuse or anything I know of.

If you had to add wire or splice into the factory wiring I would check the voltage at the switch, ( I'm sure there still voltage there) and check for voltage at the plug on the headlamp, (I bet there's none or extremely low voltage) thus indicating an open circuit in the wiring. If it has worked since you changed the bars I would be will to bet that it was vibration that has caused the wiring to loosen in one of the connections, I would always solder the wires together where the might get wet, moved or are under vibration.
