One of the wires coming from the bike is a running light wire.

Connect the grounds, black wire form turn signal to green wire bike.
Then I believe the turn signal wire on the bike is the wire that is solid. In your case the orange wire. Connect that with the red wire on the turn signal.

The orange wire with the white stripe from the bike is the running light wire. In your case you don’t need that.

if you want to retain the running light feature put diodes inline on the turn signal and runnin light wire and hook them both to the hot side of the signal. the diodes will stop the back flow of current into the dash so the new signals will act like the old ones.
