i got the larger headlight done with no problem but i cant seem to find the feed for the smaller headlights area to get to the running light do i have to take apart the light?

No you dont, the small running bulb is under the same cover as the headlight. However, its a real ball ache to get to.
I think its quicker to take the whole top part of the fairing off in one piece than fiddling for the bulb with the fairing in place

+1, just take off front end, hotbodies has a great video on how to take off head lights (its under 'headlight covers'), access to running light pretty ez with high beam sitting in lap.

And I wouldn't mind having the girl do it for me as well !!!
I just don't want her to scratch up my fairings like she may have in the video.

That's well worth the time spent. I've got HIDs and running lights to change. I'm going to remove the front fairing and windscreen to make it easier.
