Default Starting to get the bike ready

Well I'm doing a couple things to the bike before the season starts.
If anyone can point me to links with how tos on what I should do before I start riding that'd be great. I'll be doing the oil change & plugs soon. Anything else? I'm also installing new carbon fiber brake & clutch levers, a carbon fiber shift lever & carbon fiber frame sliders. Chrome oil cap, chrome stator engine cover, chrome mirrors with signals & led front turn signals. Also got a new led rear brake light with integrated signal lights. Any advice on how to install the rear light? There are 2 wires & then some kind of connection that I cant make out. Any advice at all for a complete NOOB? Thanks!

The read light is pretty easy. Just fallow the directions. Get your self some butt connectors, yellow goes to yellow and blue goes to blue. If you want to retain having your signals at the slower speed ad the resisters to each line. Then of course use one of the old bulb connectors to run power the to light itself.

Great that would be perfect if you could send me that! In the mean time I'll check and see if I find what I need with those keywords. Thanks again!

Well I'm going home and trying to wire this bike up, so if anyone can help me out here it'd be great. Please click on the link and look at the picture. I'm installing my integrated tail light and I think I figured out the wiring but would like to ask you all if what I'm thinking is right. I was going to connect yellow (from tail) to yellow and green (from harness) & then blue (from tail) to brown (from harness) and leave white as the ground. Am I right or messed up? Thanks for any help!
