Default New bars risers grips

Well I put them on today but my head light don't work any more. I got a ticket on the way home for no head go figure but the cop didn't say anything about no blinkers or speedo so could I hook up my head light to a toggle and the battery if so please explain how to do it. I m looking for a quick fix to get my ticket signed off. And I spent about fours hours tucking and re routing so I don't want to mess with that right now. Thanks in advance to whom helps

You can edit posts. Very nice feature around here. I do it all the time.
A hot from your battery to a switch to your light will work. It'd be better to use a relay between the switch and headlight. A fuse before the switch as close to the battery as possible might also be worthwhile.

Thanks for the input but I only get on here on my phone and there isn't a edit option.
