Looks good enough to me Gary! Very Happy 
Yam sounds nice too. Being the leader doesn't help when creating video either I suppose. You miss all the carnage when up the front...

And as for music on the video. I don't mind either way.  Very Happy 

Nice one!  cheers

I am going to spend a few pennies on eBay today on lights!

My thoughts on extra headlights

1).   Same as  Gary's light on the Yam which is like a strip of LED's. Do they work of 12volt? I presume the light is similar to the one's Andy and Waynetta had  on there bikes when they came down from Peak district to Jeff's?

2)   4 or 5 LED spot lights to go on helmet which I think need a 8.4 battery pack?

Would I need both? Does your setup Gary do the job? Is a spotlight on the helmet that much better than on the bike? Can you get the spot lights to work of the battery?

Bit of video night footage would be cool!

Yes, very - but at 20 quid don't expect the performance of a fancy HID setup costing x10
It doesn't project the light that far, but has a wide beam so OK as a 'get you home' job
If you want to do serious night riding though suspect a bigger investment needed!
