In side the Handel bars there are a bunch of green wires, then one running towards the main harness. Check that one.

Cheers guys,never thought it could be the bulbs as there's two like a car,and it'll seem strange that two go at the same time,what's the grounds?

I can't understand why the yellow AC wire goes to the headlight relay.

It might be different in your case, but my headlight quit working because the headlight relay burned out. I would put a new relay in, and it would last a few days. I finally just removed the relay, and jumpered DC over to the headlight wire. Has been working that way for 1200 miles now.
