Hi J
simple answer: yes. There is just one wire to the starter button, which is switched to earth when pressing the button.

Pictures speak louder than words.

If you need original plan, then here:

thanks guys
I ended up threading a cable through the original sleeve from switch to headlamp
soldering it to the switch and adding it it to the earth circuit in the headlamp
