    Harness for turn signals and brakes

    I knew this was going to be a pain so I kept on procrastinating installing an anti-theft device. I need to identify the wires for the turn signals and brake lights. Anyone know which wires they are. I've enclose a picture of what I think is the correct harness (picture is from front of the bike looking back.

    and just incase that is not the harness, I have a wider view.

    Thanks.

    I think I may have figured it out looking at the wiring diagram.. Left turn signal black&yellow/Green. Right turn signal black&yellow/Gray.
    Tail light (3 wires)- Blue&Red/black&yellow/Red: where Red is tail light, Blue&Red is brake

    And the location of the wires is on the left side of the picture, for the left and right turn signals. Unfortunately, the connector for the brake/tail is by the tail so I have to modify the "factory specific" interface because the wires for that are not long enough.

    I tracked down the schematic, but I had no idea, at first, what I was looking for on the bike, so I thought it would be easier and safer to just ask if anyone was familiar with where these wires/connections were. The job was much more involved than I anticipated because while the turn signal connectors are under the seat, the connector for the tail light and license plate light were in the tail. I was able to figure out how to get to the tail connectors without splicing the supplied adapter interface, but with not much length to spare.
