Only comes with one switch, you have to buy more separately.
Powered it from the battery, but now I have a switch. On my handlebars I have this:

The second switch goes to the passing lamps (because I hated the switch behind the forks). The third used to be wired to the LED lighting that I have since removed.
Though not all current, I wrote up a blog post on it a while back:

It's just part of my habit now to start the bike, turn on the two switches. Turn the bike off, grab my phone, turn off the switches.

I was an avionics tech in the Aor Force, I can handle that.
wondering if there is accessory power under the fork cover near the headlight, or do I need to pull the tank? Or ???

On my 2011 RK, I use an orange wire with a white stripe for switched power( 6'' back from headlight plug ). look around for an orange wire with white stripe and test it....
