Hi Kevin,
A relay is a workaround indead. But I don't thinks it is only the contacts.
If you pull a wire from an old MG (or other car/bike) you will see the Copper
Oxide (green stuff) thruogh the small wires (that we call Litze wire).
This will also bring up the resistance, but probably less than the contacts.
Greetings, Rene
