Cool watsen turn signals.....how to wire them up.

Ive been sitting on a pair of watsen turn signals for some time now. I'm about to install them. they are for the cbr600. I have the additional little pigtail so they work as running lights too. question is.....how do they wire up? the signals have 2 wires while the stock signals has 3....
I thought I would ask the group before I called up watsen.

thanks as always guys!

I had a set of Watsens on my old 600RR and had ordered them direct from Watsen, they do offer a "running light adapter kit" which I also bought with them. The other way shown by motogomojo should work as well, its probably the same thing, just the kit from Watsen was only $20 and it was ready to go, worked perfectly and I didnt have to source out diodes and solder a bunch of stuff. Here's a link to the Watsen site so you can check them out-

Hope that helps!

I never installed them on my Hawk, but on my old 03 600RR everything worked perfect. It had the same setup as the Hawk(3 wire front signal), the adapters just cut the voltage down to give running lights, and full power on the signals, they were a great signal and really bright for their size. I can't really remember specifics on the install, but I do remember it didnt take very long and was pretty painless. I'd shoot Watsen an email, they're a good company and would probably hook you up with an install diagram.
