Hi Charlie, and welcome.I wonder if you know the source of the additional headlights on that bike.They are so much neater than the ones on my V7 Special.

 
I`m looking for some for mine too, I think I`d like amber ones for mine though? Confused

Why amber?I just want to see where I'm going when it's dark!
 
Fair enough. I thought my headlight was ok actually, there`s more chance of me getting caught in fog on the mountain. There`s the odd Dietz lamp knocking about but they`re pricey

If I remember correctly, these are the spotlights used:

They were mounted through the headlight bucket - the M8 threads were drilled out so the stud of the spotlight would fit through. 

Since they use a 30 watt sealed beam unit, you can easily swap out the clear for amber.

How many times did you fall asleep while reading it? Wink "Barney" has since returned (April 5th) - the gentleman I sold it to was "thinning the herd" a bit and sold it back to me. Rode that Ambo over 9k miles this year.
