Default Directional/running lights on all the time

I've searched the forum and haven't found this issue. 2002 Wide Glide. The front directional/running lights are on all the time. Signals work fine. Just wondered if I could disable them? Aside from removing them. I still want the signals but don't need them lit up all the time. The back ones aren't on all the time. WTF?

that is because it is the required by law for the front to stay on all the time but not the rear. 2 filament bulbs in the front where single filament bulbs are used in the rear.
yes you can disable them
I suppose the easiest way is to unplug them as a running light and leave the signals connected.
