If a bike has them as standard can they be replaced with normal bulb types when they fail? Just looked at the price of replacements and i cried!

All depends on the relay (which should be a simple change too). What bike? Canbus could throw a spanner in the works too.

Manufacturer led's very seldom fail, usually if it does it will be early in its lifetime and you should get it as a warranty claim.

Following that, go for pattern parts, not oe.

Thats Honda for you. I doubt they will fail through wear but obviously whacking them on something won't be good.

If you are worried about that aspect you could probably replace them before damage with aftermarket LED without any issues.
