Nice find. Not a bad price. Depending on how much a cooling system costs it might make the overall system viable. If you swapped all the lighting circuits out to use LED's the setup could be useful. IIRC most states require headlights to be turned on at all times. That's 50-60 watts hi-beam. Older tail/running lights are probably 12V,2A= about 24 watts. So you could definitely make a good dent in basic operating power. Not sure what power a bike pulls to power the plugs. For some reason I never did check that power level. Good luck with your design.
