When I push in the clutch my lights turn off and then i release the clutch the lights turn back on. if I turn on the high beam all the head lights low beam and high beam stay on while using the clutch has anybody else had this problem before?

It could be the light switch itself.

Normally strange things with the lights "on" are due to grounding issues. Recently a couple of people had these type of problems but failed to mention they upgraded the headlight harness with an aftermarket unit. It turns out the after market unit was pinned wrong.

Issues with the lights going off are usually the headlight switch.
