I have a 1989 FXRS and recently bought a new set of handlebars, controls and switches.  The newer (96 and up) wires are color coded differently.  Can you tell me which new wires correspond to the old, and which one is no longer used?

Here are the color codes for the new wires

White/black  dir switch to blinker
orange/white hot for dir and stop light switch
grey engine on/off switch
white/blsck hot for on/off switch and strat

Black red engine on/off switch

orange/white hot dir switch and horn
yellow lights hi/low switch
blue lights high/low switch

Good luck and happy riding
