While putting them on,did you move your front brake perch from the switch housing?if so,check to make sure the brake light switch is makng contact with the brake perch lever.

If you took the switch housing apart and didn't put a spacer in between the brake lever and the switch housing you may have broken the switch and it will leave the brake light on all the time. Common problem if your not real careful.
