I wouldn't worry about it. There is a new standard for electronics whereby law requires the use of lead free solder. Lead free solder complies with RoHS. RoHS standard was created in EU and not in California. California just followed suit.
I don't think nightrider uses lead acid battery. That would be really dumb. They most likely use NiMH or Li-ion or Li phosphate battery.
If there is any lead in the setup it would be in solder.
The notice probably is there only to keep corporate legal counsel happy.

Thanks to all for your reassurance. My mind is much eased about it now.
And yes, a couple of your replies did make me laugh too!
