light bar

A question came up from my friend Cameron, the new owner of my R3T. I never installed the light bar but he is doing it today. He expressed concern that because the Rocket has a can bus electrical system, that it might throw an engine light if the new LEDs he is installing does not have a relay. The shop installed the auxiliary lights on the turn signal bar for the previous owner and and the are switched to the stock switch on the left handlebar. I don't know if there is a relay in there or not. So can we just swap out the silly Kuryakin aux lights for the Triumph spotlights but with the LED lights installed? These are the full lights, not just LED bulbs.
 


Just a suggestion . . .
I have recently come across a small bar by RIGID that should put out good light.
RIGID E-Series Hyperspot in 6" or 10"
Bar - Light Shape - Lights | Rigid Industries

All installed. The issue was the need for another relay with the LEDs. We spend the afternoon installing the lights, cutting and splicing wires etc, and all is good. I bought the spotlight kit some time back, then bought LED lights for it, not bulbs, but the entire light assembly, which I handed over to Cam when we did the bike swap. Everything works and they are extremely bright.
 

How bright, and at what distsnce?
