    Would they black flag you if it went out during the race?

    Most of our Track & Race Bikes have the OEM switch gear still installed and also the ends of the wiring where the Road lights were disconnected.

    Tiz a piece of piss to connect up one of these even for even an Electrical Numpty, and you then have a ready made switch if you use your main beam switch and wiring for the supply.
