It's a loose/faulty wire someplace.

First guess would be to check your headlight wires.

If it's the R, check behind the lights and follow the wire back to the 4 wire connector. The black is the ground. It gets corroded and breaks down.

If it's not, look under your seat. There's a wire there that gets worn by seat pressure. Hard to diagnose because the problem is only there when riding and the seat is weighted.
