I like the idea of mixing WS bikes and SW cavalry. A friend of mine has a WS list that uses grav weapons and they are deadly.
One thing I would question is taking a Stromtalon over a Stormfang/wolf. I have to admit I am not overly familiar with the Stormtalons as I do not play vanilla marines but the SW flyers seem like absolute beasts.
Also I assume your two HQs are going with each of the cavalries? Doesn't make sense to waste a the CC heavy chapter master in a shooty bike squad.
What is the purpose of the Iron Priests? I have seen that set up to supplement existing cavalry squads but on their own I am not sure what they would achieve except creating multiple threats I guess.

The list is champions of fenris so the iron priests are the compulsory choices, plus add some ablative wounds in the cyberwolves to the TWC squad and also add some more fist attacks in there.
It was more of a choice of points than not wanting a wolf flyer to be honest, could drop the hunter and talon, but would still need to shave a few more points off somewhere else to add a wolfy flyer in.
Yeah one HQ in each cav unit.

Can Iron Priests + Cyberwolves join a unit? I thought they formed a unit by themselves.

Yes you can because he is now an IC, so you can attach him to a unit, the same as you can attach a wolf lord with fenrisian wolves to a unit
Both the wolves and the iron priest are characters as opposed to a unit so they can be attached to other units it says unit type character for both in the Iron Priest entry in the book

So i have tweaked the list
Dropped the cyberwolves on the iron priests to save some points, dropped the stormtalon and the hunter, have added in a stormfang, i think this gives the list more overall
