Default p650 lights

does anyone notice on the 650 that when a little throttle is applied the lights get brighter. i know this happens because the motor is going at higher rpms, but at idle they arent as bright (headlights and brake light). Does my 650 have a problem, if so how do u fix it, or is this normal.

thanks

packard, I think you answered your own question. they wont be as bright as idle compared to when your on the throttle.

Many cars do that too, if the alternator is not designed to output sufficient amperage at idle. This usually happens more on sporty cars and not on pickup trucks. Also happens when you put power pulleys on you car.

It isn't a big deal.

It can still charge your battery from dead at idle, just not as fast, nor as high as if you were at higher RPM.
