Well tested it tonight while it was light, put a fuse in the relay and both light's came on so least I knew it was working, despite intending to pull the lot out was just curious if it did work and why it had been disabled.
Thanks to AdieR again for the wiring, looks like it has been wired into the lighting circuit although using the relay and completely bypassing the Mod on here where you use the Green wire when you switch the lights on both low beam come on but when you switch to high beam the low beam stays on so instead of 120w of lighting it's running 175w in total on high beam with 120w of that on the offside, it's actually quite blinding to look into as well and lens gets really hot.
I couldn't be bothered to remove the tank and check from where it was spliced and soldered in so disconnected the fused relay and checked from there as I knew the blue wire ran directly from the headlight and the red wire from that block and both to the relay. With the lights off got 0.01v, sidelight was 0.06v and with the lights on got 12.41v also checked with lights off everything else to make sure there was no voltage and the lights was the only one I got the reading on off the red wire with the other probe on the negative of the battery. I checked the heated grips out while I had the stuff out, they were wired in correctly.
Thanks to Karlo, especially for the diagram as I found something interesting there. It had been wired from the headlamp to 30, Earth to 85, Positive to 87 and Live Main Beam to 86 but everything worked fine. I took the connectors off and changed it to the diagram which was headlamp to 87, Earth to 85, Positive to 30 and Live Main Beam to 86 and it worked exactly the same, only difference was the relay got quite hot where as the the other way round it didn't but as I have removed the fuse and intend to strip it out guess it doesn't make much difference.
Thanks again for the input.
