Had a 40 mile ride in the dark last night and I was very impressed by the headlights on the TT, pleasantly surprised.

Just a thought in case you’ve not been out in dark conditions.

Cheers

The MG auxiliary lights work well too

I don't ride much after dark but I agree that the stock lights are excellent. In fact one of the accessories I was going to add were factory auxiliary lights but after riding at night with the stock pair of LED headlights I decided additional lighting wasn't necessary.
 
I agree in part about the v85 headlights. They are very bright and main beam is decent but the cut off on dip is very sharp. When cornering it feels like you are riding into a back hole. 7/10 for me but way way better than my old 12GSA.

Best lights on a bike I’ve ever had was a 2007 Varadero. Like twin lasers they were. Better than my car at the time.
 
Mine came adjusted too low the cut-off was way too close on low beam. I had to adjust it up a fair amount..
