Neils Deauville has a set of BikeVis Cree DRLs mounted up high to great effect.

Glad you like them, I might add this is intended for my son to ride, when he passes his test, but for the time being it's my back-up to the F650GS (and K1100LTIC when I get the clutch job finished).

You have WAY to many bikes :)

4 is not too many, esp. as one will never be used on the road... At one point I had, at the same time, R60/6, R80/7, R80RT, R100T BMWs, G80C Matchless and a Rickman Endurance Racer with a CB900 engine, with a couple of XT 500's stored elseware... so Currently my 2  BMW's and nippers Deauville take up much less space, the F650GS was supposed to be my summer bike, and the K1100LTIC for the winter.

Sometimes I wish I still had the Rickman, but that one was a licence loser, 160 plus mph on older designs of  comparatively narrow crossply tyres was 'interesting'!

I'll trawl my photo albums, if I do find any I'll send them.
Only scary if you used it unwisely, had several interesting rides which could have ended badly, derv spill at night on the square roundabout in Southampton was the worst, only more throttle and speedway style saved that one, the cage driver behind ended up in the central barrier!
This one's very similar [size=78%]http://cybermotorcycle.com/gallery/rickman/Rickman_Predator_5.htm[/size]

Finally found a picture... That's before the Sebring 4-2-1 racing exhaust was fitted, those standard cans and pipes rotted like crazy.
