I'm having a bit of trouble identifying these biker heavy weapons from the chaos bike upgrade pack. I've attached what I've got in a pic, anyone know whats what?

I think the ones on the right are flamers/meltaguns. Hard to tell from the pic sorry for the others

from left to right, plasma gun, lights that sit in the slot next to the gun, flamer

I see, thanks. So how do you obtain melta's for bikes, then?

Meltas, not melta's. There's no apostrophes in plurals!

Those are actually meltas, not flamers. Flamers looked different when those bits were originally sculpted (they looked more like a squirtgun nozzle) and there's no pilot light on them. If you wanted to use them as either I doubt anyone would notice though.

Alternately, you can just give the rider the gun you want. If a dude is waving a melta or plasma gun over the handlebars, that works. Even the Ravenwing dudes in Dark Vengeance come that way.

That's what I ended up doing with my Ravenwing Bikes, since the Ravenwing sprues don't have special weapons. I had some fun scavenging for parts; one of the meltaguns on one of mine is made out of a combi-melta from the SM Captain box (I think), and one of the plasma guns comes out of the old metal Chaos Raptors...
