Light switch....some help. (CB750)

I have a nice switch that I'd like to mount on the headlight bucket. Anyone have any suggestions..... Diagrams?

Bike is mostly stock 1976 CB 750. I don't have a horn, turn indicators and I run the ignition off of the key with a push button start. Once I move the light switch I can really get everything off of the bars.

If the switch is just an on-off toggle, you just wire it into the ground wire so that when it's off it lifts the ground. If it's a 3-way switch you wire the off into the ground, the middle on position to the low beam and the top on position into the high beam. As for mounting, I'd just drill a hole in the headlight shell far enough away from the edge to allow room for the switch and the headlight lamp/reflector. By the way, put the horn back on. You'll need it! If you look around you can find lots of small switchs that will allow you to clean up the handlebar area. I use DuCon or TriCon switches from Brit bike shops on my bikes. Here's a pic of the setup on my SR500.

I've got a ball of string, guess what colour it is?
Without information, that's a pretty dumb question
