.....One thing though: those highway passing lights will absolutely kill your battery......

And you will get arrested by the Eco police for light pollution.

It does look nice though!

See the the top spot lights I can turn them off with a switch, the bottom to come on when my dipped head lights come on, they don't light up much but they do come on. Will the be a problem for the battery?

I think you can keep them anyway, if 4 is to much for you, you can keep 2, during the night is helping in my opinion because you will not be seen by the other road users like a car somewhere miles away, they will understand this is a bike. about draining your battery, well, if you forget your light on, your battery will be flat sooner than if you have just one, but will be still flat in any case :)) if those light are not directly connected on the battery, your battery will be fine during the night with ignition off. also any electric thing you fit on the bike, connect it at ignition not directly on the battery (12v chargers, usb chargers, gps power cable, etc)
