Ram Mount

Anyone have any expierence wtih these mounts? I am a little concerned about the handle bar clamps marking the finish. I like the flexibility of these mounts, thinking about using one to mount a box for some toogle switches. Would you suggest any other mounting system?

Parabellum Sport Shield

Looking for recomondations for adding driving lights on a non ABS model. Does BMW specify a maximum load that the battery/alternator can support for all accessories including lights?

Thanks
