Not at all. The lighting circuit on the banshee is independent of the ignition circuit.

My banshee drops a few rpms at idle when i turn th lights on. How much of a drag it creats who knows if it is even measureable.

almost 1hp gain without lights on, and take the lights and wiring and switches off = less weight, plus better aireo= less drag = goooooooooooo faaaaaaster.

[toytech]

It's still a gain in HP
