If they are LED, you will have to get the wire conversion to allow you to use them as running lights. Although, http://www.superbrightleds.com sells the 1157 led bulbs that can work with standard three wire terminals. If they are standard bulbs, you need to look at the wiring. If it has three wires then just swap the bulb. If it only has two wires, you will need the wire conversion kit again. Basically, the kit splits the power wire into to leads to be plugged into the wire harness. This allows power to run to the light for running lights then when the switch is used, the other wire from the flasher relay takes over. You should be able to get them at any bike shop.
Yes, that is a Single Sided Swingarm FZR600 that I built.

Something is lurking, waiting, wanting to be built......It calls to me from the darkness....

I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel....Then I realize that it is the train coming to run my ass over....
