I have discovered that if my headlight switch moves accidentally from the low position into no man's land - the fuse will blow.

It does not blow when intentionally switching from low to high, or back.

Is it normal for the switch to do that? I know it is not normal for the driver to do that :)

I've seen that on other bikes, seems to be common....
