Headlight problem

I rode the scoot into work today, and when I started it up to come home, my headlights didn't come on. I figured a blow fuse, but when I got home and checked it, the fuse was fine. Uh-oh - High/low switch? Low beam relay? Short in a wiring harness?

Nah - I checked the Reflex group on Yahoo and discovered that the starter switch cuts out the headlights when engaged, and if it doesn't pop all the way back out, the light won't come on. A little fiddling with the switch brought the lights on. Seems like a poor design to me, if it's that fussy...
