Well, Duh! Hammo. Lights use electrickery. Electrikery is drained from the battery. The alternator needs to replace electrickery in the battery. The extra work from the alternator uses up more fuel from the engine to drive it. How's THAT for logic? --- Cheers PeterC [aka MildThing] '01 Yamaha FJR1300 www.dmcsc.org.au http://eladesom.com.au/ulysses/ # 37181 |
