Default Turn signal wiring help??

Trying to finish up my streetfighter F2 project. I thought I found the wiring for the front signals,but now I'm not sure. Does anyone have a picture or color of wires I should be looking for?

Best I can tell you is, my 98 uses orange/orange white (left) and blue/blue white (right) and a green ground on each.

I'm saying that from memory, so the left/right MAY be back-wards. ;-)

Again, this is from memory, but I believe the solid color is the turn signal and the color/white is the cruise lights.

You're 100% right. Only 3 wires on the front as the rears shouldn't be on except when blinkers are flashing.

for the fronts - you can go just 2 wire and lose the running/parking light functionality.

or if you want to make them work as park/running + blinker in front you'll need to add a diode in - follow this how-to:

Don't limit yourself to just cbr searches for lighting accesories. I found a pair of kz500 flush-mounts for the front of mine with the double-element sockets and three wire hook-up.
