depends if your bike has an existing electrical system with a battery and alternator windings (at that age, it will probably just be a kick-start with a coil running directly from the magneto).

adding the lights wouldnt be difficult, you would just need to add switchgear to the handlebars, make some new mounts for your lights and make a wiring loom to connect it all together with a 12v battery, only major problem is finding a reliable way to charge that battery
