[quote="T-Bird Rider"]I don't know if your switch is cosmetic or not but believe that you'd be a lot better off investing $50 in a Battery Tender than making one of your critical safety features optional". If your battery isn't fully charged, the lights aren't going to make enough difference to matter. With the Battery Tender, your machine is always ready. All you need to do is check fluid levels and tire pressures and you are ready to roll.[/quote]
